1.1 This specification covers requirements and test methods for 1/2 in. through 14 in. multilayer polyethylene-polyamide (PE-PA) pipe, which is a two-layer pipe (PE pipe layer bonded to an inner layer of PA). The multilayer pipe covered by this specification is intended for use in piping applications where the permeation and chemical resistance of polyamide (PA) compounds may be useful to protect the PE pipe layer, such as oil and gas producing applications that convey oil, dry or wet gas, and multiphase fluids.
Note 1: Permeability and chemical resistance depends on the type of PA used. The PA layer delays but does not prevent liquid hydrocarbons effects. Therefore, the hydrocarbon chemical design factor for this multilayer pipe should be the same as for PE pipe layer-see X1.2.
