Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)
History
Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) was first polymerized in the 1950’s.
Composition
UHMWPE is a type of polyolefin that is composed of very long chains of polyethylene with a very high percentage of parallel orientation and high level of crystallinity.
