POLTEC’s Fire Retardant Anti-Static (FRAS) is a requirement for composite ventilation ducts used in underground mines, especially coal mines. The material must be conductive (anti-static as well as prevent propagation of a flame - Fire Retardant).
The first flame retardant and anti-static UHMWPE that has many specialties: halogen free;antimony free;no strong smoke emission; non-toxic smokes/gases;and no reduction of technical properties of UHMW-PE.
It has virtually unbreakable light weight so that it shows good impact strength. And its light weight enables easy handle without special equipment. With the armed weatherproof, it doesn’t absorb water.
Thanks to its feature of chemical resistance, it resists corrosive chemicals (Sulphuric Acid, Caustic Soda, Urea, etc.). Its abrasion resistance makes it be rated better than carbon steel for sliding abrasion applications. With designed low coefficient of friction feature, it thus does not require lubrication. It achieved UL94 class VO in fire rating.
Now Poltec’s fire retardant anti-static (FRAS) is now mostly delivered to markets of Australia, Indonesia, and Philippines.
