UHMWPE

Product Overview of UHMWPE in Medical Applications

UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) stands out in medical applications due to its unique properties and excellent physiological compatibility. Its advantages include remarkable wear resistance, superior impact strength, and exceptional resistance to stress cracking.

For over 40 years, UHMWPE has been the preferred material for medical implants. Its exceptional durability and abrasion resistance make it highly effective for tackling wear-related issues. Kadeswara Healthcare manufactures UHMWPE utilizing Celanese GUR® 1020, 1050, and 1020-E polymers.
