The invention relates to a biaxially oriented pipe made of a polymer composition comprising a propylene-based polymer, wherein the propylene-based polymer comprises A) a heterophasic propylene copolymer, wherein the heterophasic propylene copolymer consists of (a1) a propylene-based matrix, wherein the propylene-based matrix consists of a propylene homopolymer and/or a propylene copolymer consisting of at least 70 wt % of propylene monomer units and at most 30 wt % of ethylene and/or α-olefin monomer units, based on the total weight of the propylene-based matrix and (a2) a dispersed ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, wherein the sum of the total amount of propylene-based matrix and total amount of the dispersed ethylene-α-olefin copolymer in the heterophasic propylene copolymer is 100 wt %, wherein the amount of (a2) with respect to the propylene-based polymer is 2.0 to 30.0 wt %.

Biaxially oriented pipe

The invention relates to a biaxially oriented pipe made of a polymer composition comprising a propylene-based polymer, wherein the propylene-based polymer comprises a random copolymer of propylene and a comonomer which is ethylene and/or an a-olefin having 4 to 10 carbon atoms, wherein the propylene-based polymer has a comonomer content of 0.5 to 3.8 wt % based on the propylene-based polymer.
