PolyGroup Inc. Announces Introduces High Molecular Weight Microparticle Powders

PolyGroup Inc. and Two H Chem Ltd have announced the introduction of very high molecular weight polyethylene (HMWPE) based microparticle powders adding to the already established line of plastic based microparticle powders.

The SP Series product line offers various grades with different mean average particle sizes ranging between 40 and 700 micron. These finely sized HMWPE based powders exhibit melt index values well below 0.1 gm/10 min, as measured by ASTM 1238, 190 C, 2.16 kg. Molecular weight values fall between those of typical extrusion grade polymers and UHMWPE making them a good technical value for many applications that require low melt flow and very high toughness. SP Series HMWPE powders can be used in paints, varnishes, and coatings for multiple purposes including anti-slip agent, anti-graffiti additive, squeak sound control between floor and tires, structural agent, and satin and matte finish ffects. Applications include car park and other heavy duty industrial flooring, road marking, structural paints, wood and metal furniture, marine paint, varnishes, and others.
