Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Sheet
At Anyang Ruisu Plastic Co., Ltd., we produce Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) sheets, designed for applications that demand exceptional wear resistance, low friction, and high impact strength. With a molecular weight exceeding 3 million g/mol, our UHMWPE sheets offer superior performance in environments where durability and resistance to abrasion are critical.
Technical Specifications:
- Molecular Weight: ≥ 3,000,000 g/mol
- Operating Temperature Range: -150°C to +80°C
- Density: 0.93 – 0.94 g/cm³
- Tensile Strength: 40 MPa
- Coefficient of Friction: 0.10 – 0.22 (dry condition)
- Shore D Hardness: 60 – 65
Key Performance Features:
- Extreme Wear Resistance: With one of the highest abrasion resistance ratings among thermoplastics, UHMWPE significantly outperforms materials like steel and other engineering plastics in high-wear environments, extending service life in critical applications.
- Ultra-Low Friction: The extremely low coefficient of friction allows for smooth, non-stick surfaces, reducing energy consumption in sliding applications such as conveyors, chutes, and guides.
- High Impact Strength: UHMWPE sheets are virtually unbreakable, providing exceptional protection in applications where shock, stress, or vibration are present.
- Excellent Chemical & Corrosion Resistance: Resistant to most corrosive chemicals, including strong acids and alkalis, UHMWPE is well-suited for use in aggressive industrial environments.
- Outstanding Cryogenic Performance: With an operating temperature as low as -150°C,UHMWPE maintains its physical properties in extreme cold environments, making it a reliable choice for cryogenic and low-temperature applications.
Applications:
UHMWPE sheets are utilized across a variety of industries due to their versatile and superior performance, particularly in the following sectors:
- Bulk Material Handling: Used extensively in liners for chutes, hoppers, and dump trucks, where its wear resistance and low friction improve flow efficiency and reduce material sticking.
- Mining & Heavy Equipment: Ideal for high-abrasion and impact-prone environments, such as wear pads, impact zones, and conveyor liners.
- Medical & Food Processing: FDA-compliant for direct food contact and biocompatible for medical device components, UHMWPE offers hygienic and durable surfaces.
- Marine & Outdoor Applications: UV-resistant and impervious to moisture, it’s perfect for dock fender pads, marine equipment, and outdoor machinery components.
