Key Features of Both HPPE and UHMWPE

High tensile strength  

High abrasion-resistance  

Impact-resistant, absorbs high amounts of energy  

Low moisture absorption  

Chemical-resistant (excluding oxidizing acids)  

Resistant to UV radiation  

We discuss how these different types of fibers are produced in the next section.  Some of the manufacturing processes mentioned next are used to make other polymer-based MCR Safety products aside from just HPPE cut-resistant gloves.
