Measuring Thermal Performance
Markets & Applications
Just like elite athletes who surpass the limits of typical human
accomplishment, high-performance thermoplastics surpass
commodity and even engineering resins with their exceptional
capabilities.
Following are top reasons why many manufacturers and designers choose
high-performance thermoplastics:
• High-temperature resistance • Chemical resistance
• Flame/smoke/toxicity (FST) performance • Chemically inert
PLUS, ALL
THE BENEFITS
OF PLASTIC
In addition to their elite-level properties,
high-performance thermoplastics deliver
the typical advantages of polymers over
other material types such as metal, glass and
ceramic, including:
• Light weight
• Design freedom/part consolidation
• Easy colorability
• Efficient, high-volume processing
• Elimination of secondary operations
• Enhanced product experience
for the end user
- quieter environment
- improved tactile feel
- better usability
ADVANTAGES
Going Above
and Beyond
• Amorphous structure
• High marks for toughness, chemical resistance,
hydrolytic stability, resistance to boiling water,
and extreme thermal capabilities
• Best for: aerospace interiors, hot water fittings,
and medical and dental devices that are
subjected to repeated steam sterilization
• Also used in food equipment exposed to
temperature extremes, such as coffeemakers
or freezer-to-microwave cookware

and chemical properties
• Often selected for demanding applications requiring
ultra-high mechanical strength combined with high
temperature, corrosion and wear resistance
• Impact resistance may be lower than
that of PSUs and PAEKs
• Best for: aerospace interiors, automotive lighting,
medical devices, and electrical and fiber optic
connectors

TEMPERATURE AND MATERIAL TYPE
The two broad classifications of high-performance thermoplastics—amorphous and semi-crystalline—
have different temperature characteristics.
You have the responsibility to conduct full-scale end-product
performance testing to determine suitability in your application, and you assume all risk and liability arising from your use of the information and/or use or handling of
any product.

All of these methods are good options to combine materials however
they are limiting when it comes to productivity rate because of the secondary
process involved.
All products were dried as per the recommended
conditions including the developed products which were dried in Desiccant oven
at 70 C for 2 hr.

Improved cut-through resistance,
increased continuous use temperature, abrasion
resistance, and mechanical toughness are all features
of this product range.
