Ultra-strong fibers with many applications
Stamylan® UH is the raw material for Dyneema-® the world's strongest fiber™. This amazing fiber has an unlimited number of applications.
Films and tapes
Transparency and very high wear resistance make Stamylan® UH an ideal material for ensuring the exceptionally low friction performance of products such as skis and snowboards.
Microporous film
Gel processing allows Stamylan® UH to be incorporated into highly-permeable membranes for filtration and separation, electronic devices, transdermal drug release patches, etc.
Additives
In addition, Stamylan® UH grades can be added to other engineered plastics to enhance abrasion resistance and/or sliding properties, or to introduce anti-slip behaviour in heavy duty polyethylene film.
