NOTE 2 For example, ISO 21004 provides an alternative solution for use in contaminated soils. SeeReference [3] in the Bibliography.

This document specifies three types of pipe:

PE pipes (outside diameter d_n), including any identification stripes;
PE pipes with co-extruded layers on either or both the outside and/or inside of the pipe (total outsidediameter d_n) where all layers have the same MRS rating;
PE pipes (outside diameter d_n) having a peelable and contiguous thermoplastics additional layer on the outside of the pipe ("coated pipe").

This document also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this document.
