Uhmwpe pipe for wear and scaling application at polymetallic mines.

Uhmwpe, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, a linear polyethylene resin, according to ISO 11542, any PE with molecular weight above than 1500000 g/mol can be called UHMWPE, however, when it comes to application at mining section for transportation of tailing slurry, which requires high wear resistance, and non scaling, the UHMWPE should be made with at least 2500000 g/mol. The higher molecular weight, the better performance of anti-wear.

The picture shows Dragon UHMWPE pipe, made from material more than 3000000 g/mol, especially made for application in polymetallic mines (Gold mine, silver mine, copper mine, molybdenum minerals, lead-zinc ore) as pipeline tailings, paste and slurry applications.
