                                    The main applications of UHMWPE sheet


Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene refers to a linear structure polyethylene with a molecular weight of more than 3 million. It is the Engineering Plastic with the best comprehensive performance. Its abrasion resistance, impact resistance, corrosion resistance, self-lubrication, and shock energy absorption are five characteristics. There are the best among plastics, known internationally as "amazing materials".

Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene has been widely used in various sectors of the national industry because of its superior properties. UHMW-PE has been widely used in textile, paper, packaging, transportation, machinery, chemical, mining, petroleum, agriculture, construction, electrical, food, medical, sports and other fields, and has started to enter the fields of conventional weapons, ships, automobiles and so on.
The main application range of ultra high molecular weight Polyethylene Sheet
1.Applications focusing on wear resistance and impact resistance
1) Textile machinery
Textile machinery is the earliest application of UHMWPE. At present, there are an average of 30 UHMWPE parts used in each textile machinery abroad, such as shuttles, shuttle rods, gears, couplings, sweep rods, buffer blocks, eccentric wheels, rod bushings, swinging back beams, etc. Worn parts.
2), papermaking machinery
Papermaking machinery is the second area of UHMWPE applications. At present, the amount of UHMWPE used in papermaking machinery accounts for 10% of the total. Guide wheels, scrapers, filters, etc.
3), packaging machinery
Use UHMWPE instead of modified fluoroplastics to make guide rails, slider bases and fixing plates for conveyors, UHMW-PE guide rails, pads, guard rails (plastic steel).
4), general machinery
UHMWPE can be used to make gears, cams, impellers, rollers, pulleys, bearings, bushes, bushings, pins, gaskets, gaskets, elastic couplings, screws, pipe clamps, etc. Such as pier, bridge pier protection board.
The main application range of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene sheet
2.Applications based on self-lubricity and non-stickiness
1) Material storage and transportation
UHMWPE can be used to make powdered linings, such as silo, hopper, chute and other return devices, sliding surfaces, rollers, etc. Bucket liners for storage bins such as coal hoppers and powdery product hoppers.
2) Agricultural and construction machinery
UHMWPE can be used to make wear-resistant plates and brackets for agricultural tools.
3), sports supplies
UHMWPE can be used to make skating sleds, sleds, etc.
The main application range of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene sheet
3.Applications based on corrosion resistance and non-water absorption
1) Containers and packaging
UHMW-PE is one of the most widely used fields for making warm water containers for solar equipment.
2) Chemical equipment
UHMW-PE is used to make chemical industry parts, such as: seal packing plate, packing material, vacuum mold box, pump parts, bearing bushings, gears, seals, etc.
3) Conveying pipeline
4.Applications based on hygiene and non-toxicity
1) Food and beverage industry
In the beverage light industry, it mainly uses its outstanding abrasion resistance, impact resistance, self-lubricity and non-toxicity to manufacture various gears, cams, conveyor line wear-resistant guardrails, pads, guide rails and various anti-friction, self- Lubricated bushings, linings, etc. Such as: food machinery rails, star wheels, guide kun gear, bearing bushings, etc.
2) Medical
UHMW-PE can be used to make artificial human body parts.
5. Other performance applications: ship parts, extremely low temperature mechanical parts, etc.
1), low temperature resistance applications
2), electrical insulation performance applications
UPE can be used to make acid lead battery separators (films) with a dosage of 4,000 tons / year.
3) Application of ultra high modulus fiber
UPE can be used to make bulletproof fabrics.
4), application in coal mines
UPE can be used to make wheel liners, wire rope floor rollers, lifting buckets, tank ears, tank beams, belt idlers, conveyor scrapers, baffles, chutes, and friction plates for shotcrete machines.
