UTEC® is an Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) product line manufactured exclusively by Braskem. UTEC’s molecular weight is about 10 times greater than High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) resins and its density makes finished parts approximately eight times lighter than steel. This extremely high molecular weight provides UTEC with several outstanding properties, such as: high abrasion wear resistance, high impact resistance, and very low coefficient of friction that makes the material self-lubricating. UTEC can be used for a vast array of applications in the following industries: construction, agriculture, material handling, transportation, textile, pulp and paper, food and beverage, mining, marine, porous plastics, oil and gas, high performance fibers, battery separators and waste water treatment. UTEC is sold in powder form with products spanning a range of molecular weights and particle sizes. The molecular weight begins in the low range (3 million g/mol) and extends to a high range (7 to 10 million g/mol).

Luwax® range comprises polyethylene waxes, ethylene copolymer waxes, and oxidized polyethylene waxes that help in maximizing the efficiency of pigment use. Depending on the specification for the final product, waxes can increase color strength, lower the quantity of pigment required, or reduce the shear force needed. They also act as lubricants during the molding or extrusion of final goods and are used during the production of pigment masterbatches and compounds as well as for the processing of PVC and polyolefins.

Biobased polyethylene compounds for extrusion and injection molding Terralene® is a tailor-made family of polyethylene compounds based on renewable raw materials. All Terralene® grades are based on sugar cane as a raw material thus making a valuable contribution to the conservation of fossil resources. Due to the durability of Terralene®, it is possible to produce items which are designed for a long service life. The material can be processed on existing production equipment without any adjustments. After use, Terralene® products can be placed back into existing polyethylene recycling streams without any detriment to the recyclate. Advantages of Terralene® at a glance: Diversified portfolio of extrusion, blow molding and injection grades High percentage of renewable raw materials Can be processed on existing equipment Good barrier properties Fully recyclable Conservation of fossil resources

Sterra™ shapes are produced from re-processed, industrial ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene materials. These recycled shapes are then re-purposed for use in a variety of industries such as construction and heavy equipment, agriculture and grain handling, bulk material and parcel handling, and automotive and transportation.
