High Density Polyethylene has a good chemical resistance to almost all acids and bases, detergents and hot water. HDPE has good insulation properties and is easy to weld. The operating temperature is from -50 °F to +180 °F.
• low density
• high toughness ( at low temperature)
• high elongation
• very good electrical and dielectric properties
• very low water absorption
• low steam permeability
• high chemical resistance
• good protection against stress cracking
• food safe
• soft surface (low tensile strength)
• HF welding not recommended
• natural color is not weather resistant
Applications:
Transport containers, pumps and valve parts, parts in the tank construction, components with medical applications, gaskets, sliding profiles, components for the food industry.
