What is a fiberglass canal?


In modern agriculture, urban drainage system and landscape engineering, glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel as a new type of environmental protection building materials, gradually into people's vision. So, what is the glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel? This paper will introduce the glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel in detail from its definition, characteristics, application fields and future development trend.

1. the definition of glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel, also known as glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) water channel or glass fiber reinforced plastic channel, is a kind of using glass fiber and its products as reinforcing material, with unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) or epoxy resin and phenolic resin as matrix material, through pultrusion process or molding process made of composite material water channel. It combines the advantages of high strength, corrosion resistance of glass fiber and light weight and easy processing of resin materials, making it an ideal substitute for traditional concrete canals and metal canals.

The characteristics of 2. glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel 1. strong corrosion resistance: glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel has good acid resistance, alkali resistance, salt resistance and other chemical corrosion properties, can be used for a long time in harsh environment without damage.

2. High strength and light weight: The tensile strength of the glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel is close to or even more than that of carbon steel, but its density is only 1/4 of that of steel, so it is convenient to install and transport, which can reduce the engineering cost.

3. Wear resistance, impact resistance: glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel surface is smooth, not easy to scale, excellent wear resistance. At the same time, its impact resistance is far more than ordinary plastic, can withstand high water impact.

4. Excellent thermal insulation performance: The thermal conductivity of the glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel is low, and it has good thermal insulation performance, which helps to reduce the temperature loss of the water in the water channel.

5. Green environmental protection: FRP canals will not release harmful substances during production and use, are environmentally friendly and meet modern environmental protection requirements.

3. application field of glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel 1. agricultural irrigation: glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel in the application of farmland irrigation system is more and more widely, its corrosion resistance, wear resistance characteristics can ensure the long-term stable operation of the water channel, improve irrigation efficiency.

2. Urban drainage: in the urban drainage system, glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel can be used for rainwater collection, sewage discharge and other occasions, its excellent corrosion resistance can resist the erosion of acid and alkali substances in sewage, to ensure the smooth flow of the drainage system.

3. Landscape: in the landscape engineering, glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel can be used for waterscape, artificial lake and other water body construction, its light, easy to process the characteristics of easy construction and installation, at the same time its beautiful appearance can also be integrated with the surrounding landscape.

4. Industrial field: In the chemical industry, electric power, metallurgy and other industrial fields, FRP water channels can be used to transport various corrosive media, such as acid, alkali, salt, etc., and its excellent corrosion resistance can meet the needs of these special occasions.

The future development trend of 4. glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel With the continuous improvement of environmental protection awareness and the promotion of scientific and technological progress, glass fiber reinforced plastic water channel as a green, environmentally friendly, high-performance building materials will be more widely used. In the future, FRP water channels will continue to develop and innovate in material properties, production processes, and application fields, and make greater contributions to the sustainable development of human society.
