Rehabilitation by relining materials based on polymer composites is an alternative solution towards the degradation problem of the old piping. This paper provides a brief summary of advances in technology, methods and materials for relining as well as a summary of the degradation analyses of the two main composite materials used for relining, rubber filled epoxy and reinforced polyester baltoflake when they are exposed in deionized water and elevated temperature up to 80°C for a duration of 2-14 months in the laboratory. }, journal = {International Journal of Chemical and Molecular Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {2}, year = {2015}, pages = {284 - 287}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10000429}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/98}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 98, 2015}, }
