Abstract

A plastic pipe 10 is a pipe utilized in a cooling water systems, and the bonding strength of each layer is heightened, and resistance capabilities of the antifreeze solution are enhanced. The plastic pipe 10 comprises an inner layer 22 formed from either a polyphenylene sulfide or an aromatic polysulfide, which is a denatured substance thereof, an intermediate layer 24, which is a mixture of PPS resin and a polyamide resin, and an outer layer 26 including a polyamide resin. The inner layer 22 is formed such that permeation of an antifreeze, which has mainly ethylene glycol, is less than 3.0 g/m2 per day. The resistance capabilities of the antifreeze solution can be achieved by making the thickness of the inner layer 22 0.2 mm or greater.
