THE IMPROVEMENT AND APPLICATION OF POLYETHYLENE -CHINABALLISTIC.COM
In recent years, product research and development technology has been continuously improved, and various products are constantly innovating in terms of performance, materials, packaging and production technology. For bulletproof products, the limited protective performance and high weight have always been difficult obstacles to improve the performance of bulletproof products. Therefore, scientists and researchers in the field of bulletproof protection have always been involved in finding and developing new materials. At the same time, attempts are made to improve and enhance the performance of the original materials, and the new polyethylene (PE) is one of the new high-performance materials improved through new technologies.
The high-strength and functional polyethylene tape is made of special high-molecular-weight polyethylene, which is currently the strongest polyethylene material in the world. It is an upgraded version of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, so in addition to all the characteristics of ordinary ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene materials, it also has excellent characteristics that ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene does not have, such as high strength under the same weight And functional polyethylene tape is 11 times stronger than steel, and at the same time, compared with ordinary UHMWP, it has higher corrosion resistance, UV resistance and creep resistance as well as good thermoplasticity.
The excellent performance of this super polyethylene comes from its special processing technology and manufacturing process. Super polyethylene is to melt and press ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles to synthesize polyethylene film, and then stretch it to a thickness of 50-60um. At this time, the polyethylene molecular chain will be fully stretched and regular under strong pulling force. Arranged together, giving it far superior characteristics than ordinary ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene materials. These ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene films are then laminated together to obtain what we call super PE materials.
The bulletproof product made of super PE has a super energy absorption effect, it can disperse and absorb the kinetic energy of the bullet, so as to intercept the bullet and have a good bulletproof effect. Therefore, this super PE has been applied to bulletproof helmets, bulletproof inserts, and bulletproof vests and other bulletproof products.
In addition, this new type of super PE has also been applied in many fields, such as:
Textiles and composites – some textiles are made with this super PE, and composites synthesized with this type of fabric have strong compression resistance. For example, adding super PE fibers to some carbon-containing composite materials and glass materials can enhance the strength and compressive ability of the composites.
Ropes, nets and cables—-Super PE has super high tensile strength, combined with its light weight, it is used as the best material for making ropes, cables, etc. In addition, its good corrosion resistance makes it more widely used.
In addition, super PE can also be used in the manufacture of air containers, sails, etc. As long as it is a product with high requirements for strength and light weight, super PE can participate.
