Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene special compound | Extruded film

It is a special compound product of UHMW-PE and an extruded film. It has characteristics such as low friction coefficient, excellent wear resistance, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance.

UHMW-PE stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. UHMW-PE is a type of polyethylene with an average molecular weight of over 500,000, characterized by a low coefficient of friction, excellent wear resistance, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance. However, many grades have high melt viscosity, making injection molding and extrusion difficult. DREYLUB is a special compound of UHMW-PE that can be used for injection molding and extrusion. With advanced compounding technology and formulation know-how, we offer customized materials that meet our customers' needs. DREYFOL is a melt-extruded film made from UHMW-PE. Typical UHMW-PE films are generally porous because the high melt viscosity of the resin requires the creation of a cylinder through compression molding, which is then machined into a film. In contrast, DREYFOL has achieved film production through melt extrusion. The film produced by melt extrusion is not porous, resulting in superior durability and mechanical properties compared to porous films.

basic information

Features of DREYLUB □ Low friction coefficient and self-lubricating It has a low friction coefficient comparable to that of fluororesins and possesses self-lubricating properties, making it suitable for sliding applications. □ Wear resistance It exhibits superior wear resistance compared to engineering plastics such as POM, PA, and PBT. □ Chemical resistance It has high stability against various chemical substances, including acids and alkalis. □ Noise reduction It features noise suppression in applications such as gears and rollers. □ Low specific gravity The specific gravity of UHMW-PE resin is low at 0.92 to 0.94, making it suitable for lightweight applications. □ PFOA-free It does not contain PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid), an organic fluorine compound. It can be considered as an alternative to fluororesins like PTFE. Features of DREYFOL □ Non-porous It is manufactured through melt extrusion, resulting in a dense bond between the resins, making it non-porous. This is expected to enhance durability, wear resistance, chemical resistance, and moisture resistance as a film. □ PFOA-free It does not contain PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid), an organic fluorine compound. It can also be considered as an alternative to fluororesins like PTFE.
