Polyformaldehyde (POM)
Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal resin, polyoxymethylene, and polyacetal, is a thermoplastic crystalline polymer, known as "super steel" or "race steel".
Product Characteristics
POM is a tough and elastic material that still has good creep resistance, geometric stability and impact resistance even at low temperatures. POM has both homopolymer and copolymer materials. Homopolymer materials have good ductility and fatigue resistance, but are not easy to process. Copolymer materials have good thermal stability, chemical stability and are easy to process. Both homopolymer and copolymer materials are crystalline materials and do not absorb moisture easily. The high degree of crystallization of POM causes it to have a very high shrinkage rate, which can be as high as 2% to 3.5%. There are different shrinkage rates for various reinforced materials.
Standards-Compliant
DuPont POM 500P NC010 complies with UL certification standards.
Application
DuPont POM 500P NC010 has a wide range of product applications. It is mainly used in the manufacture of various sliding and rotating mechanical parts, such as gears, levers, pulleys, sprockets, etc.
Due to its excellent physical and chemical properties, DuPont POM 500P NC010 is particularly suitable for making bearings, hot water valves, precision metering valves, conveyor links and rollers, flow meters, etc. In addition, it is also suitable for making car interior and exterior handles, window rotating mechanical parts such as cranks, as well as oil pump bearing seats and impellers. In the field of electronics, DuPont POM 500P NC010 also performs well, applicable to gas switch valves, electronic switch parts, fasteners, terminal posts, mirror masks, electric fan parts, heating plates, instrument buttons and other components production.
Save And Suggest
Residual monomer vapours can accumulate in the headspace of closed containers. Store in a cool, dry place. Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Store in a well-ventilated area away from heat and sunlight.
