Materials

High Density Poly Ethylene

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
