What is the friction coefficient of uhmwpe?
The coefficient of friction for Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is generally low, contributing to its excellent lubricity and self-lubricating properties. The coefficient of friction for UHMWPE is typically in the range of 0.1 to 0.2. This low coefficient of friction makes UHMWPE well-suited for applications where reduced friction and smooth sliding are important, such as in conveyor systems, bearings, and other industrial components.
It's important to note that the coefficient of friction can vary depending on factors such as surface finish, temperature, pressure, and the presence of lubricants. For specific applications or requirements, it's advisable to consult the manufacturer's specifications or conduct friction tests under the relevant operating conditions.
