of construction plastics
PC (polycarbonate) is an amorphous, high-strength and transparent thermoplastic. It combines many of the good properties of metals, glass and plastics such as impact resistance, transparency, stiffness, dimensional stability and good heat resistance, even at low temperatures.
PET is an unreinforced partially crystalline, thermoplastic polyester. It is characterised by a high mechanical stability, excellent dimensional stability (better than POM), very good wear resistance (comparable with PA 6) and very good sliding properties. PET has also good electrical insulating properties and good acid resistance, it is physiologically harmless. A very low water absorption, which hardly affects the mechanical and electrical properties, and the (within the group of the thermoplastics) comparatively low thermal expansion coefficient are the reason for an excellent dimensional accuracy.
PA is a macromolecular, partially crystalline thermoplastic with high impact resistance. The combination of hardness and stability on the one hand as well as toughness and tensile strength on the other hand is achieved by no other thermoplastic. Today PA is one of the most used plastics in machine construction. It has good chemical resistance and additionally it is bond- and weldable.
POM-C is a highly crystalline thermoplastic. It is characterised by an extremely low water absorption, very high measuring stability and optimal processing properties (short-chipping). Because of the favourable properties – high hardness, stiffness and stability combined with good toughness and chemical resistance as well as favourable friction and wear behaviour – POM-C can be used in many cases instead of metallic materials.
PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), also known as acryl glass, PLEXIGLAS® or PERSPEX®, is available in cast or extruded quality. Uncoloured it has a translucency of 92 percent.
Whether for folding displays, price tags or containers – it’s like if this material was specially made for the production of goods and advertising presentation. PET-A can be processed very easily and cost-efficiently and has good optical properties.
