Summary
LUBMER™ is a specialty polyethylene developed by Mitsui Chemicals’ original polymerization technology. LUBMER™ has outstanding sliding properties, abrasion resistance and moldability. In particular, LUBMER™ is used for a wide range of applications for soundproofing parts of office automation equipment, automotive, electrical and electronic parts. In addition, LUBMER™ is making a significant contribution to the development of building materials, mechanical parts, etc.
Properties
Sliding properties
LUBMER™ shows a coefficient of friction comparable to that of fluoroplastics.
Self-lubrication / Abrasion resistance
Significantly better than ordinary polyethylene, polyacetal and nylon.
Chemical resistance
LUBMER™ has stability against a range of chemicals.
Food Safety
Some of the LUBMER™ grades meet food hygiene requirements.
Noiseless properties
LUBMER™ is used for soundproofing gears and rollers.
Insulation properties
LUBMER™ has excellent electrical insulating properties comparable to those of other polyolefins.
