Acetal

Acetal is renowned for its machinability, wear resistance, and low friction coefficient, making it a preferred choice for components subjected to constant friction and sliding movements. Furthermore, its good dimensional stability, resistance to moisture absorption, and excellent chemical resistance broaden its utility across diverse industries, from automotive to consumer electronics. We provide a range of Acetal formulations, from the stiffer and stronger homopolymer to the tougher and improved thermal stability copolymer.
