HTP 高效率熱塑性塑膠

HIGH-PERFORMANCE THERMOPLAST

For the production of its world-famous HTP-kayaks, PRIJON is using a special PE, called HTP.

This material can only be used in blow-moulding and not in roto-moulding, as used by other producers of kayaks.

The molecule chains of HTP are approximately 10 times longer than those of rotated PE.

This makes the boat hulls stiffer, lighter and less susceptible to abrasion.

HTP-kayaks have clear advantages regarding from stability, abrasion and boat weight, compared to kayaks made of rotated PE.

HTP is very environmentally friendly.

When it is recycled, there are no poisonous gases or residues; it is ground water neutral and free of heavy metals.

Care: HTP-boat shells are very sturdy and already possess a permanent protection against UV-rays.

Therefore they need no treatment with varnishes, wax or other care materials.

+ Extremely high level of mechanical resilience

+ Not sensitive to ground contact

+ Stiff and form stable when paddling in arctic or tropical regions

- Comparably high weight

PRIJON世界聞名的HTP材質獨木舟是用一種特別的塑膠-高效率熱塑性塑膠製成的。

這種材料只適用於吹管熱塑成形的方式, 不能像其他獨木舟生產者一樣用於旋轉熱塑成形的方式。

高效率熱塑性塑膠的分子鏈長度大約是旋轉熱塑PE塑膠的10倍以上。

這讓HTP材質的船殼更堅硬、更輕、更不易磨耗。

相較於rotated PE材質的獨木舟，HTP材質的獨木舟在穩定度、磨耗度和船的重量方面有明顯的優勢。

HTP材質是很環保的，在回收的時候，不會產生有毒氣體或廢料，也不會影響地下水以及產生重金屬物質。

保養：HTP材質的獨木舟非常耐用而且具有永久抗紫外線的功能。

因此不需要透過保護漆、保養蠟或其他材料保養。

+ 極高階的恢復彈性物理特性。

+ 與地面接觸不易受傷害且不用謹慎處理的。

+ 不論是在寒帶或熱帶都堅硬且有良好的穩定成形性(與rotated PE相比較)。

- 重量相對地比纖維材質的船高。
