Properties/attributes include: Strong, stiff parts. High continuous-use and heat-distortion temperatures. Non flammable. High dimensionally stable precision parts. Processing: During processing the moisture level should not exceed 0.03%, otherwise porosity and surface defects (e.g. smearing) may occur. Predrying is recommended even when sealed original containers are being used. To avoid internal stresses, a low shear load should be used for processing. The processing notes provided merely represent a recommendation for general use. Due to the large variety of machines, geometries and volumes of parts, etc., it may be necessary to employ different settings according to the specific application. High-temperature polymers place increased demands on the tool steels employed. Information provided by Lehmann & Voss & Co.KG |
