Cooling
The ongoing climate change has become a fact and has led to a continuous increase in average temperatures on virtually all continents. To address the needs of residents as well as maintain the wellbeing of employees and customers in shops, offices and factories, industrial cooling and air-conditioning installations have become indispensable.
Refrigerators and refrigerating plants prevent goods of all kinds, including food and pharmaceuticals, from being spoiled.
Polymer pipes play an important role when it comes to designing and installing modern, energy-efficient and durable cooling systems.
The inherent low thermal conductivity contributes to saving precious energy and reduces condensation on the exterior of pipes. – The corrosion resistance of polyolefin extends the service life while the toughness and low temperature resistance of polyethylene in particular facilitates the installation and operation of such systems.
SABIC solutions for cooling offers:
- Chemical and corrosion resistance
- Good low temperature impact strength
- Low thermal conductivity, reducing condensation on outside of pipes
- Mechanical flexibility for ease of installation
Potential applications
- Air conditioning systems, domestic and industrial
- Industrial cooling systems
- Artificial ice rinks
- Cooling systems for swimming pools, football stadiums
