POM Polyacetals

POM C (Polyacetal Copolymer- natural and black colour)

Polyacetals are polymers whose chains include mostly acetals (-O-C-O-). They are formed in aldehyde polymerisation processes. They are used in the following industries: food, processing, agricultural, chemical and machines industry. Polyacetals are characterised by very low humidity absorption, very high chemical resistance and high dimensional stability. POM C is more resistant to strong alkalis, thermal and oxidation degradation and hydrolysis.

Characteristics:

  • Low friction coefficient
  • High resistance to creep
  • Perfect machinering
  • High mechanical resistance
  • High dimensional stability
  • Low water absorption
  • Good slide properties

Use:

  • Slide bearings
  • Components for machines used in the food industry
  • Valve seats
  • Electroinsulating elements used in electrotechnology
  • Tension rollers working in humid environment
  • Gears (also with low modules)

POM-H (Poliacetal Hopolimer – black)

This material is characterised by higher mechanical resistance, resistance to abrasion and creep.
