Conditional probability can be defined as the probability of a conditional event A B {\displaystyle A_{B}} . The Goodman–Nguyen–Van Fraassen conditional event can be defined as: A B = ⋃ i ≥ 1 ( ⋂ j < i B ¯ j , A i B i ) {\displaystyle A_{B}=\bigcup _{i\geq 1}\left(\bigcap _{j

International standards set minimum performance requirements for pipes made from PB-1 used in hot water applications. Standardized extrapolation methods predict lifetimes in excess of 50 years at 70°C and 10 bar.

Plumbing and heating systems made from PB-1 have been used in Europe and Asia for more than 30 years.

PB-1 is a high molecular weight, linear, isotactic, and semi-crystalline polymer. PB-1 combines typical characteristics of conventional polyolefins with certain properties of technical polymers. This equation for a conditional probability, although mathematically equivalent, may be intuitively easier to understand. It can be interpreted as "the probability of B occurring multiplied by the probability of A occurring, provided that B has occurred, is equal to the probability of the A and B occurrences together, although not necessarily occurring at the same time". Additionally, this may be preferred philosophically; under major probability interpretations, such as the subjective theory, conditional probability is considered a primitive entity. Moreover, this "multiplication rule" can be practically useful in computing the probability of A ∩ B {\displaystyle A\cap B} and introduces a symmetry with the summation axiom for Poincaré Formula: Isotactic PB-1 is produced commercially using two types of heterogeneous Ziegler–Natta catalysts. [3] The first type of catalyst contains two components, a solid pre-catalyst, the δ-crystalline form of TiCl 3, and solution of an organoaluminum cocatalyst, such as Al(C 2H 5) 3. The second type of pre-catalyst is supported. The active ingredient in the catalyst is TiCl 4 and the support is microcrystalline MgCl 2. These catalysts also contain special modifiers, organic compounds belonging to the classes of esters or ethers. The pre-catalysts are activated by combinations of organoaluminum compounds and other types of organic or organometallic modifiers. Two most important technological advantages of the supported catalysts are high productivity and a high fraction of the crystalline isotactic polymer they produce at 70–80°C under standard polymerization conditions.

However, the conditional probability P( A| B 1) = 1, P( A| B 2) = 0.12 ÷ (0.12 + 0.04) = 0.75, and P( A| B 3) = 0. On a tree diagram, branch probabilities are conditional on the event associated with the parent node. (Here, the overbars indicate that the event does not occur.) Venn Pie Chart describing conditional probabilities Conditioning on an event [ edit ] Kolmogorov definition [ edit ] PB-1 generally resists chemicals such as detergents, oils, fats, acids, bases, alcohol, ketones, aliphatic hydrocarbons and hot polar solutions (including water). [3] It shows lower resistance to aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons as well as oxidising acids than other polymers such as polysulfone and polyamide 6/6. [7] Additional features include excellent wet abrasion resistance, easy melt flowability (shear thinning), and good dispersion of fillers. It is compatible with polypropylene, ethylene propylene rubbers, and thermoplastic elastomers. a b c Mark Alger, Mark S. M. Alger (1997). Polymer science dictionary. Springer. p.398.

While conditional probabilities can provide extremely useful information, limited information is often supplied or at hand. Therefore, it can be useful to reverse or convert a conditional probability using Bayes' theorem: P ( A ∣ B ) = P ( B ∣ A ) P ( A ) P ( B ) {\displaystyle P(A\mid B)={{P(B\mid A)P(A)} \over {P(B)}}} . [4] Another option is to display conditional probabilities in a conditional probability table to illuminate the relationship between events. lim ϵ → 0 P ( Y ∈ U ∣ x 0 − ϵ < X < x 0 + ϵ ) = lim ϵ → 0 ∫ x 0 − ϵ x 0 + ϵ ∫ U f X , Y ( x , y ) d y d x ∫ x 0 − ϵ x 0 + ϵ ∫ R f X , Y ( x , y ) d y d x = ∫ U f X , Y ( x 0 , y ) d y ∫ R f X , Y ( x 0 , y ) d y . {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}\lim _{\epsilon \to 0}P(Y\in U\mid x_{0}-\epsilon

Key Advantages of Polybutene-1

There is evidence to suggest that the presence of chlorine and chloramine compounds in municipal water (often deliberately added to retard bacterial growth) will cause deterioration of the internal chemical structure of polybutylene piping and the associated acetal fittings. [22] The reaction with chlorinated water appears to be greatly accelerated by tensile stress, and is most often observed in material under highest mechanical stress such as at fittings, sharp bends, and kinks. Localized stress whitening of the material generally accompanies and precedes decomposition of the polymer. In extreme cases, this stress-activated chemical "corrosion" can lead to perforation and leakage within a few years, but it also may not fail for decades. Fittings with a soft compression seal can give adequate service life. [ further explanation needed] Because the chemical reaction of the water with the pipe occurs inside the pipe, it is often difficult to assess the extent of deterioration. The problem can cause both slow leaks and pipe bursting without any previous warning indication. The only long-term solution is to completely replace the polybutylene plumbing throughout the entire building. [23] See also [ edit ] Hwo, Charles C.; Watkins, Larry K.

which meets the Kolmogorov definition of conditional probability. [9] Conditioning on an event of probability zero [ edit ] Isotactic polybutylene crystallizes in three different forms. Crystallization from solution yields form-III with the melting point of 106.5°C. Cooling from the melt results in the form II which has melting point of 124°C and density of 0.89 g/cm 3. At room temperature, it spontaneously converts into the form-I with the melting point of 135°C and density of 0.95 g/cm 3. [1] Doyle (2021). Extrusion foaming behavior of polybutene-1.
