Surface modification of UHMW-PE microparticles. Enhances dispersibility and adhesion in coatings, providing slip properties and wear resistance without PFAS.
"HiGlide" is a micro-particle made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) that has undergone surface modification. The surface modification enhances adhesion to the coating film and prevents particle detachment, allowing the characteristics of UHMW-PE, such as slip properties and wear resistance, to be maintained over a long period. Additionally, the introduction of hydrophilicity improves dispersion in the paint, enabling uniform functionality. Being PFAS-free, it can be used as a substitute additive for PTFE in paints that require compliance with environmental regulations. 【Features】 ■ Improved adhesion and dispersion to materials through surface modification of ultra-high molecular weight PE ■ Excellent sliding properties, wear resistance, and durability ■ PFAS-free ■ Small diameter, spherical shape with a narrow particle size distribution ■ Excellent non-absorbency and chemical resistance ■ Lightweight with a specific gravity of 0.94 g/cm³
