Frequent steam- and water-based cleaning can accelerate the aging of the conveyor belt and may reduce the adhesion between cover and fabric with delamination as the ultimate consequence. This process of breaking down upon reaction with water, vapour or moisture, is called Hydrolysis. Hydrolysis resistant belts maintain their strength regardless of exposure to hot and humid conditions.
YONGLI offers TPU belts with excellent resistance to hydrolysis. This increases the belt’s lifetime while maintaining a steady performance.
