UHMWPE plastic marine fender pad sheet

UHMWPE fender panel have many properties like light weight, impact resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance UV resistance, aging resistance, small coefficient of friction. It's impact strength is 20 times of PVC, 10 times of nylon 66, 8 times of PTFE.

UHMWPE fender pannel: low reaction force, less surface pressure and reasonable capability of energy absorption, reasonable installation and maintenance.

3. Self- lubrication
UHMWPE has a very low coefficient of friction (0.05-0.11), so that it has a very good self-lubrication.

4. Corrosion resistance
UHMWPE has excellent resistance to chemicals, in addition to the strong oxidizing acid, in a certain temperature and the concentration range of competence of various corrosive medium (acid, alkali, salt)

5. Absorb impact energy
UHMWPE has excellent shock absorption, impact energy absorption value is the highest in all plastic, and it has a excellent effect of the silencer.

6. Low temperature resistance
UHMWPE has excellent low temperature resistance, and can be used as a low temperature component in the nuclear industry because of its still have the ductility at low temperature(-269℃)

7. Hygiene and no toxicity

8. Not easy adhesion

9. Hydrophobic property

10. Tensile strength
As the UHMWPE has the necessary structural characteristics of the super tension orientation, so there is no comparable ultra-high tensile strength, its tensile strength up to 3-3.5GPa.
