Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (PE‐UHMW) occupies the extreme end of the polyethylene performance spectrum. With a molecular weight ranging from 3 to 9 million g/mol, PE‐UHMW linear polymer chains are 10 times longer than conventional High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).
This unique molecular structure gives PE‐UHMW it’s exceptional properties like below:
Density : 0.92 – 0.96 g/cm3
Tensile strength at yield : 15 – 20 Mpa
Notched impact strength : 80 – 170 kJ/m2
Abrasion resistance (sand slurry test) : 70 – 120 %
Shore hardness D: 60 – 63o
Max. cont. temperature: 80°C
Abosn UHMWPE properties have meet the full range of material flow,friction and wear challenge associated with bulk materials.
PE-UHMW excellent properties that needed to handle bulk material are:
1.Very low dynamic friction coefficient(15)
2.Extreme wear resistance (200%higherthanstainlesssteel)
3.Resistance to chemicals
4.Corrosion resistance
5.High impact strength(upto170kJ/m2)
6.Service temperature range-260°C to +80°C
Benefit of Abosn UHMWPE as a lining materialis:
1.No incrustatons of bulkmaterial
2.No bridging caused in hoppers
3.Enhanced protection of plan tand machinery against wear
4.Faster bulk material flow
5.Costo flining exist hopper with uhmwpe is one third of the cost of mild steel
6.PE-UHMW is half the weight of steel, despite being three times as thick
UHMWPE Lining size can be cut to customer size .All different color is available with us. jayda@abosn.com
