Product Texts
GUR 4170 UHMW-PE is a linear specialty polyolefin resin in powder form
with a molecular weight of approximately 10.5 MM g/mol calculated using
Margolies' equation. The extremely high molecular weight of this resin
yields several unique properties including superior abrasion resistance
and impact strength. This grade has the best abrasion resistance of
all grades. Outstanding properties include a low coefficient of
friction that results in self-lubricating, non-stick surfaces after
processing. The resin is normally processed by compression molding or
ram extrusion.
