Conventionally, there are two types of polyethylene pipes: low-density polyethylene pipes with high flexibility and high-density polyethylene pipes with high rigidity.The former is soft and easy to bend, so it has excellent construction properties, and is used for water pipes, solar water heater conduits, etc. Widely used. However, conventional high-pressure low-density polyethylene has inferior chemical resistance compared to high-density polyethylene, and for this reason, if low-density polyethylene pipes are used for a long time as a conduit for tap water containing chlorine gas for sterilization, tubes are affected,
A polyethylene pipe with high resistance to chlorinated water has been desired because the inner surface of the pipe peels off at a thickness of 40 to 60 μm, and the peeled off material clogs meters and shortens the life of the pipe body.

The appropriate blending ratio of such medium-high density polyethylene to low density polyethylene is 5 to 30 parts by weight, preferably 10 to 20 parts by weight. If the mixing ratio is less than 5 parts by weight, the resistance to chlorine water will be low, and if it exceeds 30 parts by weight, the flexibility of the pipe will become poor, which is not preferable. In order to provide appropriate flexibility to the tube, it is preferable that the stiffness of the blend composition is 2500 kg/cm 2 or less.
