Is Tivar 88 food grade?
is a modified UHMW-PE that is FDA and USDA-approved safe for food contact and can be traced by standard metal detection equipment. TIVAR® MD has a nil moisture absorption rate reducing wear and bacterial growth.
Is Tivar the same as UHMW?
TIVAR® Cestidur FG is a modified UHMW-PE with extremely high molecular weight, and good abrasion and wear resistance.
An electrostatic dissipative polyethylene that contains recycled UHMW-PE content. A favored lining material for conveyor, chute, and hopper applications, where electrical charge build-ups are prevalent.
Is UHMW stronger than steel?
Consider the attributes of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) – a very tough subset of polyethylene that has a strength to weight ratio 8-15 times greater than steel.
