(Main)Polyethylene of raised temperature resistance (PE-RT) pipes — Effect of time and temperature on the expected strength
Polyethylene of raised temperature resistance (PE-RT) pipes — Effect of time and temperature on the expected strength
ISO 24033:2009 specifies minimum values for expected strength as a function of time and temperature in the form of reference lines, for use in calculations on pipes made of: polyethylene of raised temperature resistance (PE-RT) type I; and PE-RT type II.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 24033 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138, Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the
transport of fluids, Subcommittee SC 5, General properties of pipes, fittings and valves of plastic materials and
their accessories ― Test methods and basic specifications.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 24033:2006), which is extended to cover
PE-RT materials, type II, which have a higher hoop stress performance at higher temperatures than type I.
The first edition dealt only with PE-RT materials, currently designated type I.

Introduction
An increasing number of types of polyethylene (PE) polymers, made in a variety of processes, is on the
market for different applications in plastic piping and ducting systems. Many applications have their own
system standard that defines the properties and requirements for the pipes and fittings used.
The types of PE suitable for use in hot and cold water systems are basically different from those for
applications at ambient temperatures such as in water supply, sewage and drainage, and gaseous fuels.
Therefore, it makes sense to differentiate those PE having raised temperature-resistance by terming them
1)
“PE-RT” (for polyethylene of raised temperature) .
See the foreword for details of PE-RT materials, types I and II.
1) Abbreviated term based on the provisions of, and guidance for preparing new abbreviated terms for, basic polymers,
[1]
mixtures of polymers, and related terms given in ISO 1043-1 .
