TL;DR: In this paper, Plastic TAPES USED as CORROSION PROTECTIVE COATings for underground PIPELINES are backed with EITHER POLYETHYLENE OR POLYVINYLCHLORIDE.
Abstract: PLASTIC TAPES USED AS CORROSION PROTECTIVE COATINGS FOR UNDERGROUND PIPELINES ARE BACKED WITH EITHER POLYETHYLENE OR POLYVINYLCHLORIDE. POLYETHYLENE TAPES OFFER ADVANTAGES OF THERMAL, CHEMICAL, AND PHYSICAL STABILITY; DUCTILITY AND FLEXIBILITY; ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE; MOISTURE ADSORPTION; AND EASE OF APPLICATION. POLYETHYLENE TAPE PROTECTIVE COATINGS CAN BE APPLIED DURING EXTREME SUMMER AND WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS, INCLUDING TEMPERATURES AS LOW AS -34 C (-29F) AND AS HIGH AS 71 C (160 F), BY MANUAL APPLICATIONS TO STRAIGHT-RUN AND ODD-CONTOURED PIPING STRUCTURES; HAND OPERATED TAPE WRAPPING MACHINES ON SHORT RUNS OF LARGE OR SMALL DIAMETER PIPE STRUCTURES; AND POWER DRIVEN TAPE WRAPPING EQUIPMENT FOR THE OVER-THE-DITCH APPLICATION. /AUTHOR/
