Polimersan POLIPOLEN® (Polyethylene) HD-PE 500

Subcategory: Polyethylene; Thermoplastic

Material Notes:
PE 500: Polyethylenes with molecular weight higher than 500,000 gr/mol. POLIPOLEN® PE (POLYETHYLENE) is maintained from coke oven gas or from natural gas or from Ethene or Ethane which is produced by cracking of petroleum. Monomer, is polymerized by low pressure or high pressure method and then can be maintained as high density (PE-YY 0,941 and 0,965 g/cm³) or low (normal) density polyethylene(PE-NY 0,914 and 0,925 g/cm³). Other differences of various PE types are according to their melting degrees and opposite proportional connection occurs according to their relative molecular weights. In other words, when its melting degree is at the lowest level, its relative molecular weight is at the highest level and e.g. its mechanical specialties are the best.

POLIPOLEN has quite a low density. Its flexibility rate is high and it is resistant to strokes even at low temperatures. It has a very high molecular weight(molecular chain length). It has a high corrosion resistance because of its high molecular chain. According to the results of the "sand slurry" corrosion test which is made as per "DIN" standards, POLIPOLEN 1000 , has shown the highest corrosion resistance among the solid materials( e.g. steels, tree, other engineering plastics.)

PROPERTIES OF POLIPOLEN®:

• Very high stroke resistance
• Very high corrosion resistance
• Very high chemical resistance
• Getting lubricated itself and slick
• Excellent electrical resistance
• Quietness while processing and reducing vibrations
• Easy processing
• Low friction rate
• Very low water absorption
