Delrin Sheet
Delrin is an acetal homopolymer with an excellent balance of properties that bridges the gap between metal and plastic. Delrin Sheet is known for low moisture absorption, high tensile strength, creep resistance, and durability. With chemical resistance to hydrocarbons, solvents and natural chemicals, Delrin Sheets are ideal for industrial applications.
Features of Delrin Sheet:
Good dimensional stability Low moisture absorption – acetal can be used in wet environments with little effect on performance or dimensions Excellent machine-ability High fatigue endurance High strength and stiffness properties Superior impact and creep resistance Chemical resistance to fuels and solvents Natural grade is FDA, NSF and USDA compliant Good wear and abrasion properties
Do you know?
Acetal is grouped into different grades, of which there are polyacetal (POM) grades. Wallbosen offers both homopolymer (POM-H,also reffered to delrin) and copolymer (POM-C)grades of Acetal.
Copolymer grades (POM-C) tend to be more resistant against hydrolysis, strong alkalis and thermal-oxidative degredation than the homopolymer grades. The homopolymer grades (POM-H, or Delrin) have a higher mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and creep resistance as well as a lower thermal expansion rate and often it also presents a better wear resistance.
