TIVAR® materials are UHMW-PE based engineering polymers used to solve problems related to friction, wear, material flow and corrosion.

​

TIVAR® polymers are produced using state-of-the-art compression moulding technology and ram extrusion. The TIVAR® range of specialised UHMW-PE products are a diverse group of high performing plastics. Designed to provide specific solutions to tough problems in demanding applications, with superior wear resistance and part life in both wet and dry environments.

​

For more than 35 years, Mitsubishi Chemicals Advanced Materials or MCAM (formerly Quadrant EPP) have been the world’s largest developer and producer of engineering polymers based on UHMW-PE. Modification and innovation of materials based on individual customer requirements and applications are a focus of their business.

 

TIVAR® materials have a solid performance record in numerous industries including:

​

Mining, Agriculture, Marine, Filling and Packaging, General Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Industry, Paper Industry, Food Production, Pharmaceutical, Nuclear Industry, Medical and Electrical Applications.

 

TIVAR® materials are renowned for excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance, excellent impact strength, low coefficient of friction and high chemical resistance. TIVAR® materials experience zero moisture absorption and provide excellent noise abatement.

 

TIVAR® maintains key physical properties to -30° C.
