General:

PE-UHMW UHMW -PE with high degree of polymerization contains a detectable metaldetector additive for use in food and packaging industries where it can easily be traced by metal detecting systems without altering the inherent properties of UHMW-PE. TIVAR ® MD has excellent toughness and impact resistance, and even better wear and abrasion when compared to a polyethylene 1000, and also has a conforming composition in contact with foods. TIVAR ® MD is a polyethylene Specially designed for use in the food and packaging industries where it can easily be traced by conventional metal detection systems installed to detect contamination of food (results may vary depending on the sensitivity of the metal detection system used).

Technical features:

• High thermal linear expansion coefficient (CLTE)
• Good performance in cryogenic environment
• Excellent release properties
• Excellent toughness
• Impact resistance
• High wear resistance
• Good working properties

Defects:

Low dimensional stability

Applications:

• funnels
• gears
• guides
• handle
• bushings
• Food industry where a metaldetector can be detected
