Abstract
The physical ageing kinetics of uPVC pipes with different levels of gelation
were investigated. No significant influence of the level of gelation on both the
deformation kinetics and the physical ageing kinetics were observed. As a
consequence, installed uPVC pipes as employed for gas, water and sewer
purposes age in a way that is independent of the level of gelation
