Can the EPDM rubber hose really be used as a water pipe?

We all know that EPDM rubber is generally used as a raw material for rubber water pipes. The water pipes produced using EPDM rubber are generally used as industrial water pipes. The rubber water pipes produced by this material have wear resistance, high and low temperature resistance, and oxidation resistance. And other superior performance. So can such a good performance water pipe be used as a water pipe? In response to this problem, today Parlmu came to tell everyone that in fact, the improved EPDM rubber pipe can be used as a water pipe, mainly for the following three aspects.

First, most of the soft connections in the faucet of the community have soft rubber tubes. Some countries also use EPDM rubber for soft connections. However, there is a requirement for EPMD compounds: rubber cannot migrate, materials cannot breed bacteria and material quality should meet drinking water standards.

Second.the main polymer chain of EPDM is fully saturated. This property makes EPDM resistant to light, heat, oxygen, and especially ozone. EPDM is essentially non-polar, resistant to polar solutions and chemicals, low in water absorption, and most importantly has good insulating properties.

Third, EPDM rubber to do drinking water pipe, we must solve some problems, for example: EDMP EPDM rubber is excellent in ozone resistance, heat resistance, aging resistance, etc. If used in the field of drinking water pipes, For drinking water pipe materials, it needs to be non-toxic and harmless, and the most important thing is that it can not be harmful to human body. In addition, the price is also considered to be within the acceptable range of people.

In summary, the rubber water pipe can be used as an edible rubber water pipe, that is, it must be guaranteed to be harmless to the human body. In particular, we need to remind everyone that when purchasing EPDM pipes, whether they are water pipes or industrial pipes, they should check their production reports and quality inspection reports to prevent them from being deceived.
