UHMWPE sheet is a high-quality engineering plastic, such as wear resistance, impact resistance, low friction coefficient.
UHMWPE sheet is a high-quality engineering plastic, such as wear resistance, impact resistance, low friction coefficient, good self-lubricating performance, excellent low temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, etc.
1. Improve wear resistance. One of the most striking properties of increased molecular weight polyethylene is its extremely high wear resistance, which is very valuable in many engineering applications. Among all plastics at present, its wear resistance is the best, even many metal materials (such as carbon steel, stainless steel, bronze, etc.) are not as good as it in regular abrasiveness. As the molecular weight of polyethylene increases, the material becomes more wear-resistant.
2. Very high impact resistance.
3. Very low friction coefficient. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sheet is very wear-resistant, has low friction coefficient and good self-lubricity. Using UHMWPE sheet as the friction part of the equipment can not only increase the wear-resistant life, but also receive energy-saving effects.
4. Good chemical resistance. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sheet has good chemical resistance. Except for concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid, it will not be corroded in all lye and acid solutions. However, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is very easy to swell in aromatic materials or halogenated materials (especially at higher temperatures). Therefore, special attention should be paid to the application.
