POM

GEHR POM-C®
De continue bedrijfstemperatuur van deze technische kunststof ligt tussen -40 °C en +100 °C. Vanwege de taaiheid in combinatie met een hoge dimensionale stabiliteit is er geen neiging tot spanningsscheuren. Het copolymeer heeft een hoge thermische stabiliteit en chemische weerstand. Vooral de verhoogde hydrolytische stabiliteit en weerstand tegen contact met veel oplosmiddelen moet in overweging worden genomen. Dit materiaal wordt vaak gebruikt in toepassingen in de voedingsindustrie omdat reinigingsprocessen weerstand tegen het gebruik van heet water of verschillende chemische middelen vereisen. Onze ronde staven en platen in natuurlijke kleur voldoen aan de voedselcontactvoorschriften volgens 10/2011/EG.

PET

GEHR PET®
Polyethylene terephthalate is a semi-crystalline material from the polyester family of plastics and, due to its good thermal and mechanical properties, is counted among the polymer group of engineering plastics. It has a high surface hardness and good sliding and wear behaviour.

The mechanical properties of PET are hard, stiff, strong and tough and are approx. 10 % higher than those of the similar PBT. The good sliding properties and the high dimensional stability also open up a wide range of possible applications. Good results can be achieved in joining processes with two-component adhesives on the basis of e.g. epoxy resins or cyanoacrylates as well as silicones, for example. It is also possible to paint the components. High vacuum coating of the component surface is also possible. The continuous operating temperature ranges between approximately -20 °C and +100 °C. Like all polyesters, PET is also not resistant to hot water (from approx. +60 °C) in the long term.
