Metalen pe-1 is black high-density polyethylene of bimodal type, manufactured from a mix of linear polyethylene and high-density polyethylene by reactive extrusion with nano-activation by organo-modified montmorillonite on modern equipment in the leading-edge process of METACLAY JSC.

Metalen pe-1 has high strength, heating stability, high cracking resistance and unique elasticity at low negative temperatures. The material for special conditions may contain nano-UV-stabilizer.

Metalen pe-1 meets the requirements of STO Gazprom 2–2.3-130-2007 and was certified by Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC (Opinion No. 313239949-113-2011) for the insulation of steel pipes of any make class with the temperature of up to plus 800 °C.

Application

Metalen pe-1 is recommended for the outer coating layer in pipe insulation by side or circular (longitudinal) extrusion. The use of METALEN PE-1 provides high application rates and, if required, thin layers are achieved with no problem. Low screw drive loads are ensured and high output is achieved during the extrusion owing to nano-activation with modified montmorillonite.
