Summary

LUBMER™ is a specialty polyethylene developed by Mitsui Chemicals’ original polymerization technology. LUBMER™ has outstanding sliding properties, abrasion resistance and moldability. Especially, LUBMER™ is used for a wide range of applications for soundproofing parts of office automation equipment, automotive, electrical and electronic parts. In addition, LUBMER™ is making a significant contribution to the development of building materials, mechanical parts, etc.

Properties

Sliding properties

LUBMER shows about the same coefficient of friction comparable to that of fluoroplastics.

Self-lubrication / Abrasion resistance

By far better than ordinary polyethylene, polyacetal and nylon.

Chemical resistance

LUBMER has stability to various chemicals.

Food Safety

Some of the LUBMER grades meet food hygiene requirements.

Noiseless properties

LUBMER is used for soundproofing gears and rollers.

Insulation properties

LUBMER has excellent electrical insulating properties comparable to those of other polyolefins.

Applications

Facsimile equipment parts, bearings, toner scraper holders, word processor key plungers, assist traps, seat belt through anchors, glass-run channel, rollers for automotive massagers, aqueduct parts and bearings for video camera.
