The importance of UPE material for wear-resistant hose

2022-11-16

With the continuous development of technology and chemical industry, various wear-resistant, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant polymer materials continue to appear. What is today, UPE material. UPE, Ultra-highmolecularWeightPolyethylene English abbreviation, or written as UHMW-PE, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. Refers to the linear structure polyethylene with a molecular weight of 1.5 million, which is the engineering plastic with the best comprehensive performance. UPE is wear-resistant, impact-resistant, corrosion-resistant, self-lubricating, and impact-absorbing—these five properties are the best among existing plastics.

We have summarized the following advantages and disadvantages of UPE:.

The wear resistance of UPE is the crown of plastics, 8 times that of ordinary carbon steel

The impact strength of UPE plastic ranks first, 6 times that of ABS

The self-lubricating performance of UPE is equivalent to that of polytetrafluoroethylene, and the price is only 1/8

UPE has strong corrosion resistance and high chemical and technical performance

The viscosity of UPE is poor, and the surface of the product is not easy to adhere to other materials

UPE is hygienic, non-toxic, low temperature resistant, and malleable under liquid nitrogen

The disadvantages of UPE are: poor cohesion and poor fluidity

Letong hydraulic technology is applied to the rubber layer of its own material conveying hose due to its high wear resistance, high lubricity, corrosion resistance, non-stickiness, hygiene and safety. The main outstanding product is Litong series LT1306 8.5MPaUPE super wear-resistant concrete delivery hose, which is mainly used for concrete delivery of construction machinery such as pump trucks and mortar sprayers. Its super wear-resistant performance extends its service life to several times that of ordinary concrete delivery pipes. The high saturation of UPE also protects the product from the erosion of alkaline substances in concrete.
