Grades and characteristics

POMmaterial family

Acetal is a machinable plastic valued for stiffness, sliding performance and low water uptake. The family includes homopolymer and copolymer POM; these are related materials with different behaviour, particularly when exposed to moisture, heat and chemicals.

Specify homopolymer or copolymer when required by the drawing.

POM-Ccopolymer acetal

Reduced centreline porosity and better resistance to hydrolysis, meaning degradation by hot water, than homopolymer acetal.

POM-HDelrin® family

Delrin® identifies homopolymer acetal, selected for mechanical strength, stiffness and fatigue performance. The individual grade determines the formulation, additives and properties.

Delrin® is not a generic name for every copolymer acetal.
