Abstract:

In this paper, the three failure modes of pipes were summarized and the molecular mechanism and fracture mechanics mechanism of slow crack growth were briefly described. The principle and test process of the strain hardening modulus (SH) method were introduced in detail. The paper also reviewed the research progress in the correlation of material microstructures, the domestic and foreign reliability research of SH method for the evaluation of the slow crack growth resistance of pipes, and the application of SH method for the evaluation of the environmental stress cracking resistance of materials. Finally, the applications of SH method for the control of outlook on product quality was discussed.

Key words: strain hardening modulus, slow crack growth resistance, polyethylene, pipe
