Acrylic and Polycarbonate

Acrylic and polycarbonate are widely used thermoplastics known for their exceptional properties such as transparency, impact resistance, and UV stability. Acrylic, often referred as “acrylic glass” due to its transparency, is an excellent alternative to glass. Polycarbonate, on the other hand, has higher strength, hardness, and temperature resistance than acrylic. Acrylic is more cost-effective than polycarbonate but offers slightly lower properties in terms of hardness and temperature resistance.

POM

POM

TechWare is innovative in offering POM (polyoxyethylene-methyl) polymers in two forms: homopolymers and copolymers. Both share similar properties, but homopolymers have higher mechanical properties and hardness but lower thermal stability and harder to process. POM polymers exhibit a typical continuous use temperature of 100°C, however, this can vary based on molecular structure and the incorporation of additives. Notably, copolymers exhibit a higher operating temperature range compared to homopolymers.

PEEK

PEEK (polyether-ether-ketone) is a high-performance thermoplastic characterized by its exceptional chemical resistance, exceptional wear resistance and high heat resistance properties. Its thermal stability permits operation at a temperature range of 239-260°C, with the potential for short-term high temperature excursions.

While PEEK is considered a high-cost material compared to other engineering plastics, it is often the material of choice in situations where its unique properties are required. Consequently, it lends itself well to applications where conventional plastics and metals fail to meet the required performance standards.
