What Delrin 100?

Delrin® 100 is a high viscosity acetal homopolymer for use in easy-to-fill moulds. Delrin® 100 provides optimum mechanical performance with its excellent combination of toughness and strength. General information. Value Unit. Test Standard.

What is Delrin used for?

Delrin is Ideal for Industrial Applications Parts exposed to a moist or wet environment, such as pump and valve components, are especially appropriate. Other common uses include gears, bearings, bushings, rollers, fittings, and electrical insulator parts.

What material is Delrin?

acetal homopolymer
Delrin® acetal homopolymer (Polyoxymethylene POM) is the ideal material in parts designed to replace metal. It combines low-friction and high-wear resistance with the high strength and stiffness such applications require. It provides a wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to 120 °C) and good colorability.

What Delrin 150?

Delrin® 150 is a high viscosity acetal homopolymer for extrusion processes. It has excellent thermal stability, low die deposit, and enhanced crystallization for low porosity. Delrin® 150 is used in a variety of industries such as automotive or construction where added strength and stiffness are needed.

What is the difference between acetal and Delrin?

Delrin® is an acetal homopolymer and has a uniform backbone with a larger crystalline block structure than acetal copolymers providing better chemical bonding. As a result, Delrin® is the stiffest and strongest unreinforced technical engineering polymer available.

Are there different grades of Delrin?

General purpose grades of Delrin® are available in several basic melt flow series: 100, 500, 900, and 1700. These differ primarily in melt viscosity with 100 being the most viscous and 1700 the most fluid. Delrin® 100, 500 and 900 are known around the world for their outstanding mechanical properties.

Is POM same as Delrin?

Acetal is the common name for a family of thermoplastics with the chemical name “PolyOxyMethylene”, or POM. Acetal is available in two general types of resins: Copolymer acetal (POM-C), and homopolymer acetal (POM-H); commonly called Delrin®. Each type of acetal has its own set of advantages and disadvantages.

Is Delrin stronger than ABS?

Delrin (DuPont’s brand of acetal) and ABS are both plastics. Delrin is referred to as an “engineering” plastic because it is stronger and more resistant to distortion under load. ABS is “commodity” plastic because it is cheaper and easier to mold, however because of it’s flexibility, is relatively hard to break.

Is Delrin a plastic?

Delrin is a trademarked name for acetal resins that are semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymers. This type of material is also known by the abbreviation POM or polyoxymethylene. It has gained popularity since first being introduced to the commercial marketplace in 1960.

Is Acetal and Delrin the same thing?

It’s so well known that the brand name Delrin® is often misused as the industry term for acetal resin. But, not all acetals are equal! How is Delrin® different? Delrin® is an acetal homopolymer and has a uniform backbone with a larger crystalline block structure than acetal copolymers providing better chemical bonding.

What is Delrin AF?

Delrin® AF Blend is a unique thermoplastic material for use in moving parts in which low friction and long wear life are important. It is a combination of PTFE fibers uniformly dispersed in Delrin® acetal resin. Bearings made of Delrin® AF Blend can operate at higher speeds while exhibiting reduced wear.

Is Delrin harder than acetal?

When compared to acetal copolymers, Delrin® homopolymer combines higher fatigue and creep resistance with overall higher toughness and higher tensile strength and stiffness, allowing for thinner and lighter part design, and the potential for reduced part production cost.

What do you need to know about Delrin 100af?

Delrin® 100AF (20% PTFE Full-Strength ) is a high viscosity acetal homopolymer containing 20% Teflon® PTFE fibers. It is designed for applications requiring low wear and/or low friction against steel, itself, and other surfaces. This is a CUSTOM-GRADE only.

What can Delrin 100p resin be used for?

Delrin® acetal resin typically is used in demanding applications in the automotive, domestic appliances, sports, industrial engineering, electronics, and consumer goods industries. Delrin® 100P is a high viscosity acetal homopolymer for use in easy-to-fill molds.

Where can I find Delrin 100p nc010 datasheet?

This datasheet of Delrin® 100P NC010 from DuPont Engineering Polymers is provided by the international plastics database CAMPUS .

Which is the best version of Delrin 300cpe?

Delrin® 300CPE is available in natural and a fully compounded black formulation which retains the high impact strength and toughness of the natural. Low emission homopolymers offer high strength and stiffness The Delrin® product line offers a complete range of acetal homopolymer with very low VOC emissions for interior automotive applications.
