Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
Key Properties
● Excellent wear & corrosion resistance
● High impact strength even at low temperatures
● Superior chemical resistance
● Low density (<1 g/cm³) compared to other thermoplastics
● Low coefficient of friction
● Excellent release (non-stick) properties
● Extremely low water absorption
● Physiologically inert (FDA-compliant, though some modified grades are not food-contact safe)
● Moderate mechanical strength
● Excellent electrical insulation (anti-static grades available)
● Outstanding machinability
● Good resistance to high-energy radiation
