Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) is a thermoplastic engineering plastic that combines all the superior performance of plastics. It has excellent properties such as wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, self-lubrication, low coefficient of friction at low temperatures, light weight, energy absorption, aging resistance, flame retardant, and anti-static. The use of UHMW-PE sheets to line coal bunkers in power plants, coal mines, coking plants, as well as ore and other material bins in cement plants, steel plants, aluminum plants: grain, feed, pharmaceutical industry grain bins, dock hoppers, etc., can prevent material adhesion, speed up unloading, eliminate blockage accidents, save costs, and line bulk cargo holds to prevent powder adhesion and reduce damage to the hull by loading and unloading machinery. With the development of plastic processing technology, the application prospects of UHMW-PE will be broader.
