Polyethylene Grades <strong>for</strong> Low Temperature Range<br />
TIVAR ®<br />
Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene [PE-UHMW]<br />
TIVAR ® ECO green [PE-UHMW; green]<br />
This grade, partially composed of reprocessed PE-UHMW material, has an overall lower property level than<br />
the virgin TIVAR 1000 and a lower cost. Compared with virgin PE 500, however, it has a much better impact<br />
strength and wear resistance. TIVAR ECO shows a favourable price-per<strong>for</strong>mance ratio <strong>for</strong> applications in<br />
many kinds of industries with less demanding requirements.<br />
TIVAR ® ECO black antistatic [PE-UHMW; black]<br />
This grade, partially composed of reprocessed PE-UHMW material, has an overall lower property level than<br />
the virgin TIVAR 1000 and a lower cost. Compared with virgin PE 500, however, it has a much better impact<br />
strength and wear resistance. The incorporation of an effective carbon black grade renders this material<br />
electrostatic dissipative properties. TIVAR ECO black antistatic shows a favourable price-per<strong>for</strong>mance ratio <strong>for</strong><br />
applications in many kinds of industries with less demanding requirements.<br />
Speciality Grades<br />
<strong>Quadrant</strong> Engineering Plastic <strong>Product</strong>s focuses on innovation by modifi cation of TIVAR 1000 standard<br />
materials in order to meet specifi c market requirements. The TIVAR Speciality Grades offer improved sliding<br />
and wear properties, static dissipative characteristics, enhanced release properties or other improved<br />
characteristics.<br />
TIVAR ® DrySlide [PE-UHMW + internal lubricant + other additives; black]<br />
Thanks to the lubricant built into a PE-UHMW matrix with higher molecular weight, TIVAR DrySlide offers a<br />
lower coeffi cient of friction and enhanced wear and abrasion resistance than TIVAR 1000. The additives used<br />
also make this material static dissipative and considerably improve UV-resistance.<br />
TIVAR ® TECH [PE-UHMW + MoS 2 ; grey-black - available as “Food Grade“, details see page 65]<br />
This PE-UHMW grade with extremely high degree of polymerisation contains molybdenum disulphide,<br />
resulting in a material with improved wear resistance and sliding properties over TIVAR 1000.<br />
TIVAR ® DS [PE-UHMW + additives; grey, yellow - available as “Food Grade“, details see page 65]<br />
TIVAR DS is a modifi ed PE-UHMW with extremely high molecular weight. The latter in combination with a<br />
particular manufacturing process result in a PE-UHMW grade with superior wear and abrasion resistance over<br />
TIVAR 1000.<br />
TIVAR ® Ceram P [PE-UHMW + micro glass beads + other additives; yellow-green]<br />
TIVAR Ceram P is a wear improved PE-UHMW material with incorporated micro glass beads, specifi cally<br />
developed <strong>for</strong> use in the dewatering zone of paper machinery equipped with plastic wires and manufacturing<br />
paper with high abrasive fi ller content.<br />
