H.D.P.E. is a very rigid material for use in general plant engineering, tank construction and waste water industries, where all round chemical resistance and weather ability is required.
TYPICAL PROPERTIES
- Good impact resistance
- High mechanical strength
- Resistant to many solvents
- Very good electrical insulator
- Excellent abrasion resistance
- Very high damping properties
- Continuous use temp. of -45 to 100 Deg. Cent.
- Minimum water absorption (0.01%)
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
HDPE is resistant to Acids, Salts & salt solutions, Alcohols, oils, fats, waxes & many solvents.
All PE material is affected by strong oxidizing agents such as nitric acid, chromic acid or halogens.
Aromatics and Halogenated hydrocarbons cause swelling.
U.V RESISTANCE
Sheet & Rod products of HDPE are supplied in two colours
White which is non UV
Black which is UV
APPLICATIONS
Machine guards, water tanks, chemical tanks, cutting boards, pipe fittings & component parts.
