Lahoz, J. (2023). Plastics Pipes Conference XXI, Lake Buena Vista. Available via the Plastic Pipes Conference Association database.

Presents research on the relationship between PVC-U extrusion conditions, gelation degree and long-term pressure resistance. The study supports the technical evidence base for designing PVC-U pressure pipe systems with a 100+ year design lifetime.

The research is funded by PVC4Pipes, now VinylPlus Pipes.
