Polyamide 4.6 has excellent wear and friction resistance as well as very high mechanical properties. This is a semi-crystalline plastic.
High temperature resistance
High stiffness
High strength
Low water absorption
PA12
Polyamide 12 is a semi-crystalline material characterized by its high strength and impact strength values. Unlike PA6 or PA66, PA12 has low water absorption and therefore exhibits high dimensional stability.
low water absorption
good stress crack resistance
high abrasion resistance
PPA
Polyphthalamide is an aromatic polyamide. It is a high-performance plastic, which is used as a metal substitute due to its low weight.
high heat resistance
Good dimensional stability with only slight warpage
low moisture absorption
High tensile strength and stiffness
PSU
Polysulfones are high-temperature resistant, amorphous thermoplastics characterized by very high continuous service temperatures.
good dimensional stability
High stiffness and strength
good electrical insulation properties
PPS
Polyphenylene sulfide is a semi-crystalline material whose special features are very high heat resistance and very good chemical resistance.
Low water absorption
Inherent flame resistance
very good electrical properties (insulator)
low creep tendency
PES
Polyethersulfone is an amorphous, transparent high-performance plastic with a slightly brownish transparency.
Low flue gas density
good fire protection equipment
High impact strength
PEI
Polyetherimide is a high-performance amorphous material with amber-like transparency that can be characterized by high thermal, chemical and inherent flame retardant resistance.
low smoke development
High strength
good hydrolysis resistance
PEEK
Polyetheretherketone is a semi-crystalline material with very high heat resistance, which is also characterized by excellent chemical resistance.
