Comprised of highly durable and long wearing materials, Inhance Technologies’ UH series provide exceptional durability and extended service life in severe wear environments including mining, oil field, conveyance rollers, high performance composites and transportation industries. Extended service life decreases production downtime and replacement costs, thus maximizing productivity. Incorporation of UH grades into CASE systems results in superior wear resistance, reduced coefficient of friction and improved tear resistance. Typical loading of these additives ranges from 5% - 20%. UH-1000 series powders can be added in coatings and adhesive formulations, cast elastomers, as well as thermoplastic and engineering plastics to improve performance.
