| Description: Latan series thermoplastics are polyoxymethylene copolymer (POM) products. The main applications for Latan feature good wear resistance, chemical inertness and low water absorption (gears, cams, bushings, and other parts for the electromechanical, hydraulic, and automotive sectors, and others). A good resistance to hydrolysis makes it usable in hot water up to 80°-90°C. Basic Latan versions featuring low or high flowability are available, as well as an elastomer modified version to improve product toughness. Specific Notes for this Material: low viscosity for thin-walled products; excellent surface finish. Disclaimer from LATI: This document contains information based on average values as obtained from the results of laboratory tests and observations made on LATI materials. Tested materials were injection molded, used in their natural color, and conditioned in compliance with Standard ASTM D 618, procedure A. These values refer to LATI's best technical and scientific knowledge at the moment of testing and cannot be used as a basis for the development of applications. For a better assessment of the materials, you are kindly requested to contact LATI's technical or commercial offices, which are at your disposal and will supply detailed information on the most suitable characteristics for their intended use.
