Performance Additives
What are Performance Additives?
Performance Additives are abrasion and wear resistance ingredients that are added to products to enhance their properties. They are used in various industries to achieve specific goals such as improving performance, durability, processing, and appearance. Performance Additives protect the integrity and extend the lifetime of your components in severe wear environments, while upholding material attributes such as tensile and impact properties.
Inhance Technologies’ Performance Additives are tailored to increase the durability and lifespan of your unique parts, materials and coatings.
How Performance Additives Works
Our Performance Additives are Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) or High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) particles that are surface activated, making them highly compatible and dispersible in formulated systems. This leads to improved performance in abrasion resistance, wear resistance, and mechanical strength for applications such as coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers.
Our UH-1000 series of surface activated UHMWPE powders provide exceptional durability and extended service life in severe wear environments, including mining, oil field, and high performance composites.
The HD-1000 series are surface activated HDPE powders that provide improved wear performance, reduced coefficient of friction and improved tear resistance in wear environments, including conveyance rollers, construction and transportation industries.
The addition of Inhance Technologies’ Performance Additives improves wear resistance and prolongs the life of your products, while improving performance and reducing costs.
