Ensinger SPI

Ensinger TECASINT 4201 SD Polyimide, Black, Carbon Fiber (PI)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyimide, Thermoplastic; Thermoplastic Polyimide, Carbon Fiber

Material Notes: TECASINT is a range of non-melting high temperature polyimides characterized by high strength over a wide range of temperatures, good long term thermal stability, minimal thermal expansion and excellent wear resistance among other things. The TECASINT 2000 series offers these enhanced thermal properties along with lower moisture absorption, a higher degree of toughness, and better machining properties. TECASINT 2011 is unfilled, while TECASINT 2021 contains 15% graphite which offer improved wear resistance and a lower coefficient of friction. TECASINT 2000 series with their superior physical properties, are ideal for application in the aerospace, nuclear, automotive, electrical/electronics, and chemical processing industries.

Main features: High thermal and mechanical capacity, very creep resistant, high gamma radiation resistance, low water absorption, antistatic, low coefficient of thermal expansion, easily machined to tight tolerances, flame retardant according to UL94 V-0

Applications: Mechanical engineering, electronics, cryogenics, nuclear and vacuum technology, aircraft and aerospace industries, semiconductor technology, electrical engineering

Preferred Fields: Switch parts, seals, explosion-protected plants, connector, housing

Information Provided by Ensinger Sintimid

Key Words: PI CF
Vendors: Ensinger High Performance Plastics withstand severe environments, resist harsh chemicals, and perform well in extreme temperatures. They offer weight savings that have potential to drive lower cost systems.
