• Abrasion resistant: The performance of Ultra XLPE is comparable with UHMWPE
• Smooth surface: These films have very smooth surface finishes and low coefficient of friction (typical <0.2, static and dynamic)
• Customised size and thickness: Film dimensions are easily tailored to your specific requirements.
• Process compatibility: During the normal vulcanization of rubber compounds, the film will melt and form a continuous coating on the rubber surface
• Superior UV resistance: The black grade of Ultra XLPE film has a superior UV resistance and it is recommended to use for hose covers and applications where the film is exposed to sunlight
• Exceptional adhesion: Ultra XLPE-XB adheres extremely well to polar rubbers such as NBR. The use of the film with non polar rubbers is not recommended. For non polar rubbers we recommend Ultra XLPE films only.
• Safety: The flammability of the film is comparable to UHMWPE films (UL-94 test method). This material has been approved to use in contact with potable water up to 85°C
• Flexibility: The cold flexibility of the film is also similar to UHMWPE films, passes as low as to -55°C
