Processing and Application

UHMW-PE dose not melt. That's right, almost every type of plastic that you are familiar with melts, but UHMW-PE dose not. Here in lies the reason for its late introduction into the manufacturing world. So how do you force a resin that dose not melt into a molding tool and eventually into a finished product? The answer to this question is what has placed Global Polymer Industries among the fastest growing companies in the polyethylene industry today
