UHMW-PE: STRONGER, LIGHTER & COST-EFFECTIVE

Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) Polyethylene is quite

often referred to as the world's toughest polymer.

UHMWPE is synthesized from monomers of ethylene, which
react together in the presence of a catalyst to form ultra-high-
molecular-weight polyethylene.


UHMW-PE: ULTRA HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYETHYLENE
UHMW Polymers have a molecular weight average 10 times (up to 9,000,000 Daltons) that of
conventional HDPE. This extremely high molecular weight and long chain conformation give the
UHMW-PE its properties.

UHMW-PE is an extremely tough and abrasion resistant thermoplastic that is used for applications
that require durability and/or abrasive wear resistance.
