Polystone Matrox is a specialised grade of UHMWPE designed to overcome the limitations of standard polyethylene in challenging bulk-material handling environments. Its modified formulation delivers a lower coefficient of friction and improved release properties, making it ideal for linings where material hang-up and bridging are persistent problems.
This material stands out for its combination of high UV resistance and robust mechanical performance, ensuring long-term durability in outdoor and exposed applications. Sourced through Dotmar, Polystone Matrox provides a reliable solution for industries requiring consistent material flow and reduced maintenance.
Key Features
- Enhanced flow promotion for reduced material hang-up
- High UV resistance for outdoor durability
- Low coefficient of friction of 0.12
- High chemical resistance
- Suitable for use at temperatures from -250 °C up to 80 °C
- Available in rod and sheet formats
Polystone Matrox is typically specified for lining chutes, hoppers, silos, and truck beds where improved material slide is critical. Its high UV resistance makes it particularly suitable for outdoor applications in the mining, agriculture, and bulk-handling industries, where components are exposed to sunlight and harsh operating conditions.
