I. POM Description

Good mechanical properties and rigidity, and close to the metal material. It`s an ideal replacement material of copper, cast zinc, steel, aluminum and other metal materials. Excellent fatigue resistance and creep resistance. Good abrasion resistance, self-lubricated and friction. High thermal stability, good chemical stability and excellent electrical insulation. And it can be used in temperatures ranging from -50℃ to +110℃.

II. POM Characteristics

Advantages:

♦High surface hardness, low abrasion consumption, impact fatigue and shock resistance, low coefficient friction, and self-lubricating, therefore, it is the first material choice for manufacturing gear.

♦ High mechanical strength and rigidity. Although the contraction rate is high, the dimension is stable.

♦ Good dielectric properties, solvent resistance, non-stress cracking, no porosity.

♦ Torsional resistance, it can be restored to the original shape when removingthe external force.

♦ Low water absorption

Disadvantages:

♦Poor acid resistance

♦ Weatherability is not excellent especially the UV

♦ Difficult to glue and paint

III. POM Applications

♦Machinery industryused to produce gears, springs, bearings, wheels, connecting rod, impeller blades etc..

♦ Automobile industry

♦ Electronic and electrical appliances

♦ Others such as toys, windows, water tanks and washing basins
