GEHR PPSU® is an amorphous material, with improved impact and hydrolysis resistance compared to PSU. This amber-colored, transparent material is usually used in a black color, which is why we only offer it in this color version so far. The usual operating temperature is approx. +170 °C. The extremely high notch impact strength remains also after a heat aging.

GEHR PET® is a semi-crystalline material from the polyester family of plastics and, due to its good thermal and mechanical properties, is counted among the polymer group of engineering plastics. It has a high surface hardness and good sliding and wear behavior.

GEHR PMMA XT® (ACRYL) is amorphous material belongs to the polymer group of standard plastics, due to its thermal and mechanical properties. In addition to its high mechanical strength and rigidity, it certainly has an extraordinarily brilliant transparency. Its weather and UV resistance as well as its surface hardness are also very high. PMMA is also scratch-resistant and polishable. The continuous operating temperature ranges between -40 °C and +70 °C. The chemical resistance to most solvents, the resistance to stress cracking as well as the toughness is clearly subordinate compared to other materials from the group of standard polymers.

GEHR POM® C is produced from the continuous operating temperature of this engineering plastic ranges between -40 °C and +100 °C. Based on its toughness combined with high dimensional stability, there is no tendency to stress cracking. The copolymer has high thermal stability and chemical resistance. In particular, the increased hydrolytic stability and resistance to contact with many solvents must be taken into account. This material is frequently found in applications in the food industry, as cleaning processes require resistance to the use of hot water or various chemical agents. Our round rods and sheets in natural or black color comply with the food contact regulations according to 10/2011/EC.

GEHR PSU® is amber-colored, transparent material belongs to the group of amorphous high-performance plastics. Polysulfone has a good heat deflection temperature and heat aging resistance (-100 °C to +160 °C). In addition, this material has a high hardness and strength, very good hydrolytic stability and high radiation resistance (permeable to microwaves up to 2.45 GHz). PSU also has high dimensional stability and resistance to β- and γ-, X-rays and infrared rays. However, PSU is not UV stable and notch sensitive.
