With the recently puplished European gas-, water and sewage pipe system standards Initial Type Testing of Polyethylen compounds has become an important subject in association with the systems in order to prevent from employing materials that are not appropriate for the application. This report renders the background as well as the procedure and necessary test methods to achieve a Polyethylene pipe compound type approved. Moreover it touches particular differences in the European countries.
