The present invention relates to a processing technology for manufacturing seepage irrigation pipe with alternating effluent sections and non-effluent sections, and in particular, to the field of underground seepage irrigation in agriculture and forestry. The processing technology combines the production unit for water-effluent pipes with the production unit for non-effluent pipes, and produces the seepage irrigation pipeline by adjusting the raw material ratios, controlling the spindle speed, spindle acceleration time, and spindle deceleration time of the two pipeline production units, to generate a seepage irrigation pipe with alternating effluent sections and non-effluent sections. The lengths of the effluent sections and non-effluent sections can be adjusted, the pipe wall thickness can also be adjusted by adjusting the inner and outer diameter of the internal mold of the pipe forming unit, a seepage irrigation pipe with alternating effluent sections and non-effluent sections is environment-friendly, efficient, water-saving, and useful for underground irrigation.

Disclosed is a flame-retardant HIPS material and a preparation method thereof, comprising the following components: 90 parts to 67 parts of a HIPS resin; 8 parts to 15 parts of a brominated flame retardant; and 3 parts to 7 parts of an auxiliary flame retardant; wherein the auxiliary flame retardant is a 1,3,5-triazine compound. In the present invention, a synergistic compounding of the brominated flame retardant and the auxiliary flame retardant effectively reduces an amount of the brominated flame retardant, and a stable UL 94 (1.5 mm) V-0 flame-retardant class can be achieved. Compared with the existing brominated flame-retardant HIPS, the present invention has a low halogen content, low gas, and high cost performance ratio, which avoids excessive acid gas from forming air lines on the surface of parts, has a good appearance.

A performance of a die is improved. An injection hole IH, a nozzle NZa and a nozzle NZb are formed in a center member DIa of a die DI to extend from an extrusion surface ES to an injection surface IS. A heat source HT and a plurality of heat insulating layers HI1 are arranged inside the center member DIa. One of the plurality of heat insulating layers HI1 is adjacent to the nozzle Nzb and is closer to the extrusion surface ES than the heat source HT. The other of the plurality of heat insulating layers HI1 extends in a direction from the extrusion surface ES toward the injection surface IS at a position being farther from the nozzle NZb than the heat source HT.
