HDPE VS UHMWPE

Do you also have doubts about whether to choose HDPE or UHMWPE? What are the differences between the two materials and how to distinguish them?


Both HDPE and UHMW are known for their reliability in various industries and applications. There are many similarities between the two materials, so some people use them interchangeably. However, each material has different qualities that may make one material better than another for a specific use. Choosing the right materials is critical to ensuring the most cost-effective long-term solution.T14PeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

What is HDPE?

HDPE is a thermoplastic polymer. Compared with other types of ethylene, it has a high density (0.96g/cm3). It has many functions and has low moisture absorption, making it the first choice for various applications that come into contact with water or chemicals.T14PeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China

What is UHMWPE?

UHMWPE is also a type of thermoplastic polyethylene, often a high-grade alternative to HDPE. It has ultra-high wear and impact resistance, and its low friction and high durability make it a perfect choice for applications in abrasive environments.T14PeliouPlastic-Best Polyethylene UHMWPE HDPE Factory in China
