POM-C rod and sheet: * Low moisture absorption * High strength, stiffness * Easy to machine * Good dimensional stability
POM-C rod and sheet Characteristics:
POM is a semicrystalline thermoplastic and is characterized by a low coefficient of friction and good wear properties, unaffected by wet environments.
It offers good resistance to a wide range of chemicals including many solvents.
As water absorption is almost nil, dimensional accuracy and stability is higher than that of Nylons.
Acetal provides high strength and stiffness coupled with easy machineability.
POM is also noted for its high mechanical strength, heat resistance and good antifriction properties.
It is porosity free and is approved for contact with food (BfR, FDA compliant).
For parts which need to be dimensional stable even exposed to humid or wet environments copolymeric Acetal offers better hot water, thermal and chemical resistance than homopolymeric Acetal.
Used in:Food processing, agriculture, medical, electric, electronic, automotive, general machine building, transport and logistics, bottle and car washing equipment, sports equipment, office machinery, textile.Applications:Bearings and bushings in humid and wet environments, gears, guide rollers in lift gate systems, levers, springs, snap connectors, cam switches, clamps, pump components, mud handling equipment, instrument handles.
