POLYSTONE® PE-HMW PE 500
PE-HMW | PE 500 | High molecular weight polyethylene
Characteristics: Low density, virtually no moisture absorption, extremely low-friction, good wear resistance, limited deep-drawing characteristics, welds extremely well, resists strong impacts, high cut and scratch resistance, outstanding chemical resistance, high wear resistance, food safe (FDA)
Very good resistance to acids, bases, alcohol, aldehydes, organic solvents, and grease
Limited resistance (swelling) to some hydrocarbons
No resistance to strong oxidants such as fuming sulfuric acids, concentrated nitric acids, nitrosulfuric acids, chromosulfuric acids and halogens, and some cleaning agents.
Risk of formation of stress cracks.
Typical applications: Cover and housing components, cutting boards, small parts and seals, tanks
