Below are a few images of Acetal Resin uses.
Polyacetals belong to the category of plastics for technical purposes.They exhibit remarkable dimensional stability , hardness , rigidity , mechanical strength , good toughness and resistance to chemical agents , as well as a good anti-friction and wear performance and can so , in many cases , be used as substitutes for metals.
density , 1.41 g/cm3 up to 1.43 g/cm3
structure ,highly crystaline thermoplastics with linear unbranched chains up to 75% of crystallinity.
natural colour , matt white only due to their crystallinity.Can be coloured in all shades with a good surface brightness.
mechanical characteristics , high mechanical strength and rigidity with good toughness , good wear resistance and a low sliding friction coefficient.
chemically resistant to ( selection ) , numerous organic substances such as alcohol , aldehyde , aster , ether , glycol , petrol , mineral oil , strong alkaline solutions , and a good resistance to hydrolysis.
non-resistant to ( selection ) , oxidizing chemical agents and strong acids ( pH >4 ).Long term usage in 65° C water is not possible.
physiological behaviour , safe from the physiological viewpoint.
cracks due to internal stress , in the open air virtually do not develop. As for greater internal stress , cracks may develop in a few substances.
