Product Description

Product Description

The "Polyceramoplast™-α", "Polyceramoplast™-γ", and "Polyceramoplast™-β" grades are dry ceramic-containing composites based on UHMWPE with a molecular weight of approximately 9 million g/mol, specifically developed for conditions of high abrasive load. The material is used as a lining against wear and adhesion from bulk materials. Typical application points include receiving hoppers, chutes, and troughs. The difference in service life compared to base UHMWPE with a molecular weight of approximately 9 million g/mol (also known as PE9000) can reach up to ten times.

Thanks to their low coefficient of friction, high wear resistance, and hydrophobic surface, "Polyceramoplast™-α, γ, β" protect surfaces from abrasive and chemical wear, reduce the adhesion/freezing of wet and sticky products, accelerate material flow, and reduce cleaning time. High impact toughness and extremely high crack resistance ensure performance under impact and vibration, while chemical resistance allows the lining to be used in a wide range of media—from inert to aggressive. The operating temperature range is approximately -260°C to +80°C.

Lining for components subject to adhesion/freezing and abrasive load—buckets, hoppers, chutes, ditches. /buckets, hoppers, chutes, troughs.

Grade selection is tailored to the specific task—balancing "anti-adhesion ↔ wear resistance".
The line of ceramic-containing materials is graded based on relative wear resistance and anti-adhesion (using a 10-point scale between grades).
Wear Resistance: Polyceramoplast™-α — 5/10, α-M — 6/10, β — 8/10, γ — 10/10.
Anti-Adhesion: Polyceramoplast™-β — 4/10, γ — 5/10, α — 7/10, α-M — 10/10.
The higher the rating, the longer the service life in abrasive flows; for areas with critical adhesion issues, compositions with maximum anti-adhesion properties are selected.

FAQ

Q: Is it possible to use UHMWPE as protection against abrasive wear (sandblasting)? The task is to protect a metal cement slurry delivery nozzle from wear. Would an UHMWPE liner help protect the nozzle from wear? Or should we consider boron carbide?

A: For the stated purposes, the use of UHMWPE is not feasible—it will wear out quickly. Few materials can compare with ceramics in terms of wear resistance.

Polyceramoplast composites are used to combat adhesion/freezing and chemical-abrasive wear in mining equipment, where covering large areas with expensive ceramics is economically impractical and where the service life of ceramics would be excessive.

Q: Earlier, there was a response regarding cutting with a milling machine or waterjet. Would a handheld router or an electric wood planer be suitable for chamfering?

A:Chamfering with manual tools is possible. The accuracy of the processing in this case depends on the skill of the operator.

Q: How suitable is laser cutting for UHMWPE sheets of varying thicknesses? What recommendations can you provide regarding laser cutting?

A:Laser cutting is not used for UHMWPE: the laser melts the edges, causing the material to lose its properties in the cutting zone, and yellowing is observed. It is recommended to use milling or waterjet cutting.

Q: What is its resistance to ultraviolet light?

A:UHMWPE itself, without additives, is resistant to UV and thermal oxidation (unlike HDPE/LDPE). With the addition of stabilizers, its resistance increases to a level sufficient for several decades.

Q: What is the procedure for establishing the warranty period for products (the policy)?

A:Typically, we provide a warranty for the material's compliance with the technical specifications (wear resistance, tensile strength, impact toughness, etc.)—this can be considered the policy and the main aspect of the warranty.

In individual cases, we provide a warranty for the performance of the lining or product in a specific unit/mechanism (for example, a "turnkey" bucket)—for up to 1 year. The decision is made based on a completed questionnaire.
