Minepipe

This project aims to develop compounds that allow UHMWPE to be used in conjunction with PE100 to improve abrasion resistance properties. The final formulation will be used to manufacture highly abrasion-resistant pipes for use in the mining industry.
The product to be developed will be beneficial not only for the industry described, but also for other activities that require the use of materials with a very low coefficient of friction and high abrasion resistance.
