Materials

With the injection process, more than twenty families of polymers are transformed, from numerous elastomers replacing rubbers, to a large group of basic polymers and numerous high-performance superpolymers. Through fillers, reinforcements and additives, the number of property combinations is almost unlimited. Continuous research on new formulations, the experience of now 2,000 solved cases, and close cooperation with a number of suppliers allows us to make this one of the biggest strengths, with special attention to prices.


Scaled Plastic Materials


ABS

ABS is an amorphous thermoplastic material with excellent dimensional stability due to low shrinkage and deformation.


PELD, PEHD (EVA)

Major brands and trade names polyethylene for injection molding


PP (POLYPROPYLENE)

Partially crystalline thermoplastic, with crystallinity between 60÷70%.


PS (POLYSTYRENE)

Amorphous thermoplastic material with various combination possibilities.


PVC (Polyvinyl chloride)

Mostly amorphous and polar thermoplastic material with good mechanical properties, stiffness and hardness and especially high chemical, weathering and UV resistance.


PC (Polycarbonate)

Widely amorphous thermoplastic material. Good electrical insulation characteristics, poorly dependent on % moisture and temperature. Excellent trimensional stability.


PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate)

Amorphous thermoplastic with poor moisture absorption. Material with high tensile and compressive strength but brittle. Very resistant to chipping.


PA (Nylon 6, 66, 10, 12, 46, 610, 612, 666, 6-3- T, PA6 I)

Partially crystalline thermoplastic material (up to 60%). High fatigue strength, very tough after H2O absorption and high impact resistance.


POM (Polyoxymethylene) (Acetal Resin)

Highly crystalline thermoplastic material with unbranched linear chains up to 75% crystallinity. White or opaque, colorable in all opaque shades with good gloss.


EPP, PPO (Polyphenylnether)

Totally amorphous thermoplastic. Non-transparent. In its natural state it is beige-opaque, colorable in all opaque shades. Hard, rigid and impact resistant even at low temperatures.


PBT, PET (Polyterephthalates)

Due to the low crystallization rate it results amorphous or partially crystalline (30-40%) depending on processing conditions. Amorphous PET is transparent, partially crystalline is opaque white, as is PBT.


PPS

It is a slightly branched thermoplastic and therefore highly crystalline. The temperature for prolonged use ranges from 200 to 240°C, for short periods up to a maximum of 300°C.


PSU, PES, PPSU

High mechanical strength, good stiffness, low tendency to creep. Partially sensitive to notching and internal stresses.Safe on the physiological side.High dimensional stability.


PARA, PPA, PAMXD6, PAA

Amorphous or semi-crystalline polyamide with lower water absorption than PA 6 and PA 66, so they are more dimensionally stable and less prone to deformation .


PEK - PEEK - PAEK

Amorphous to partially crystalline, low moisture absorption, and high dimensional stability. Thermal resistance continuously up to 250°C, for short periods up to 300°C.


PI, IEP, IAP

Special material with elvated mechanical strength, with use temperatures up to 300°C for short periods.
Resistant to aliphatic, aromatic, chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons, ketones.


PVDF, PFA, ECTFE, PTFE

Semi-crystalline thermoplastic is the most important florinated material. Generally used as an additive for other plastics to reduce gravitational friction.


LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymers)

Thermoplastic typically semi-crystalline, colorable in all shades (although not always recommended).
Excellent flowability allowing for very thin thicknesses.


TPE ( TPO, TPV, TPU, CPEE, EVA )

Block copolymers with rigid polyamide blocks and flexible polyester or pilether blocks. Good resistance to oils and fuels, while they are sensitive to thermo-oxidation and organic solvents.


CA (CP, CB)

Amorphous thermoplastic with diversified plasticizer contents. Excellent flowability achieving excellent aesthetic and optical characteristics, high surface gloss, high light transparency (90%).
