The global PP-RCT Pipe market size was valued at USD 370.26 Million in 2022 and will reach USD 501.5 Million in 2028, with a CAGR of 5.19% during 2022-2028.
PP-RCT (Polypropene random crystal initiation temperature) is a new generation of PP-R material, also called high-temperature resistant β -crystalline polypropylene, which is an improved new generation of polypropylene material. It uses a hexagonal crystal form instead of the monoclinic crystal form of "PP-R" which developed with a crystalline structure, it exhibits higher pressure ratings at high temperatures and is an improved version of the new-generation polypropylene material. PP-RCT stands for "Polypropylene Random Copolymer with Improved Crystallinity and Temperature Resistance," as defined in industry standard ASTM F2389 (first published in 2004). At high temperatures, it has higher long-term strength than the early PP-R 80 and PP-R 100 resins. At a given working temperature, the stress capacity and pressure rating of PP-RCT material are about 25% and 25% higher than that of PP-R pipeline for the same wall thickness.
Potable hot and cold water installation along with air conditioning installation and heating demand to drive PP-RCT pipes market growth
With the development of the global economy, people's living standards are improving day by day, and the process of urbanization is accelerating. Industrial and residential infrastructures are also constantly evolving, and the demand for reliable pipes is increasing. Since the PP-RCT tube has superior properties such as sealing, rigidity, elasticity, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, it also includes a reinforcement layer to reduce longitudinal thermal shrinkage or expansion and provide resistance to acid-base solutions that drive growth. PP-RCT the tubing does not become brittle or soften under high pressure and has an extremely low thermal conductivity, making it ideal for hot and cold water supply systems and has contributed significantly to the development and acceptance of plastic tubing for plumbing and heating systems. Therefore, PP-RCT pipes are favored by many consumers. Among these, European government initiatives to improve infrastructure development and provision of required services, such as regular and uninterrupted drinking water supply, are driving the growth of the PP-RCT pipes market. When the University of Illinois in the United States installed a high-temperature hydrothermal heating system, it chose PP-RCT materials with better performance, which is also a case of this application. The construction industry in Asia Pacific is promoting such high-performance pipes, especially in the residential sector. Rising demand for PP-RCT pipes in application industries such as domestic installation of drinking hot and cold water as well as air conditioning installation and heating is likely to have a positive impact on the consumption trends during the forecast period.
