  • Patent number: 5152634
    Abstract: The seeping irrigation hosepipe has an integral textile tube core (1) and a porous material (2) covering the integral textile tube core (1). The textile tube core (1) is resistant to action of organic and inorganic agents, to moisture and to temperature variations. The porous material includes a mixture of resin, plasticizer, colloidal diamond black, bactericides, fungicides, algicides and thickeners and has a water absorption capacity of from 0.5% to 50% by weight of the mixture. The weight ratio of the textile tube core (1) to the porous material is from 5/1 to 1/5. This irrigation hosepipe has the required flexibility and a high tensile and breaking strength against pressure of the irrigation liquid, which allows it to be installed on the surface or buried underground.
