MECHETEC® PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) is a non-reinforced highly crystalline fluoropolymer that combines exceptional chemical resistance with superior strength and stability. When compared with traditional fluoropolymers like PTFE, MECHETEC® PVDF offers up to three times the typical strength and stiffness while maintaining unparalleled resistance to even the harshest chemicals—even at temperatures up to 300°F. These properties, along with its natural flame retardency (UL94, V-0) and ultrahigh purity have made it the material of choice for processing equipment components used in semiconductor manufacturing clean room environments. Because it also offers excellent toughness and electrical properties that remain stable over a wide range of both frequencies and temperatures, MECHETEC® PVDF is also often used in components used for power transmission. MECHETEC® PVDF is offered in two grades; MECHETEC® PVDF 740 (beige) and MECHETEC® PVDF 1010 (white). Both grades machine easily and are available in a full range of heavy gage rod and plate sizes. Formally known as Uninar PVDF.

MECHETEC® PPO (blend of polyphenylene oxide and styrene) is an amorphous thermoplastic that offers a superior blend of physical strength, flame resistance, and outstanding electrical properties. Unlike many amorphous materials that tend to steadily lose strength as temperatures increase, MECHETEC® PPO maintains its high stiffness to temperatures in excess of 200°F. In addition, it’s low moisture absorption and low coefficient of thermal expansion contribute to it being one of the most dimensionally stable materials available. MECHETEC® PPO has an excellent V-0 UL-94 flame rating at thicknesses of 0.24" and over. For applications that require improved strength and stiffness, 30% glass fiber filled is available. Formally known as Uninor PPO.

MECHETEC® PSU (Polysulfone) is an amorphous high performance thermoplastic material that has proven performance at elevated temperatures. Good mechanical properties along with thermal stability allow for its use in load bearing applications over broad temperature ranges. Other notable attributes include flame retardant, excellent radiation resistance, and good chemical resistance. The ability of MECHETEC® PSU to withstand common sterilization techniques supports its use in numerous sanitary applications such as medical instruments and food processing machinery. MECHETEC® PSU stock shapes are amber in color and semi-transparent. They machine easily and are available in a full range of heavy gage rod and plate sizes. Formally known as Unifone PSU.

MECHETEC® Delrin® (polyoxy-methylene) offers design engineers a superior blend of strength, stiffness, lubricity, and dimensional stability. These properties, along with inherent machining ease, have made MECHETEC® Delrin® one of the most widely used engineering grade thermoplastics. To meet specific application configurations and to maximize production efficiencies, Polymer Industries offers a broad array of MECHETEC® Delrin® stock shapes. These materials include both homopolymer unfilled grades as well as PTFE-filled grades for enhanced wear resistance and DE-588 options for military applications. Formally known as Unital Delrin.

MECHETEC® PC (Polycarbonate) is a transparent thermoplastic that exhibits extraordinary impact resistance and excellent electrical properties. In addition, its low moisture absorption rate and good chemical resistance make it an extremely versatile engineering material and allows for its use in a multitude of industrial applications. Unfilled MECHETEC® PC is a mechanical grade material with light transmittance of approximately 88%. For applications requiring additional stiffness, a 20% glass fiber filled option is available. Formally known as Unicar PC. For more Info : Click Here

MECHATEC ACETAL is a Polyoxymethylene Copolymer ( POM-C ) which has excellent machining stability, high strength and stiffness, superior wear resistance, large size capability.

Since its introduction in 1938, Nylon has become one of the world’s most widely recognized and utilized engineering grade thermoplastics. Nylon’s unique combination of high strength, good toughness, outstanding chemical resistance, and excellent wear and abrasion resistance have made it the material of choice for product designs in a multitude of industries. When used to replace wear grade metals like brass and bronze, no other material provides the combination of extended wear life, light weight, and low fabricated part cost of Nylon. Polymer Industries manufactures MECHETEC® Nylon stock shapes in a wide variety of types and stock shape configurations including glass filled and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 or moly) filled options. Formally known as Unipa Nylon. For more Info : Click Here

Densetec® Partition Board is the ideal partition material for a wide variety of commercial applications such as schools, parks, stadiums, office buildings and airports. The durability of our material makes it immune to such problems as vandalism and constant traffic. In addition, the material is totally unaffected by water and humidity preventing it from shrinking, expanding, bowing, warping or delaminating in any way whatsoever. It is resistant to markings by pens, pencils, most markers and paints and cleans with ordinary household detergent or solvents for more stubborn stains. Minor surface damage can easily be repaired. Finally, the material does not have to be painted and is virtually maintenance free.

MECHETEC® PEI (Polyetherimide) is an amorphous thermoplastic that is manufactured from SABIC Innovative Plastics’ ULTEM resin. MECHETEC® PEI is extremely rigid, dimensionally stable, and able to withstand continuous operating temperatures of 340˚F. Because it offers superior resistance to autoclave sanitizing and is FDA/USDA compliant, MECHETEC® PEI is routinely specified for reusable machined components used in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. This material also offers electronic and semiconductor designers unmatched dielectric properties that are maintained over a wide frequency range. Unfilled MECHETEC® PEI is dark amber in color and semi-transparent. For applications that require improved stiffness, glass fiber filled grades are available. Formally known as Unitem PEI.

Polymer Industries' Densetec® Homopolymer Polypropylene exhibits the properties of high corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and great tensile strength. It maintains its stiffness at elevated temperatures and displays incredible resistance to organic solvents, degreasing agents, and electrolytic attack. In addition, the material is lightweight, and stain and moisture resistant. Due to its chemical resistance, Densetec® Homopolymer Polypropylene is ideally suited to be used with a wide range of chemicals. Its resistance to aggressive media permits it to be used in laboratories and a large variety of industrial applications. The material resists most strong acids and bases even at relatively high temperatures and concentrations.

Densetec® Playground Board is making a big splash in the playground industry. The variety of bright contrasting colors make it perfectly suited to this environment where high impact colors are required. Because the color is embedded in the sheet, it never needs painting. Especially with the rigors and abuse that children inflict upon playground equipment, this material lasts much longer than wood. The versatile properties of Densetec® Playground Board make it virtually vandal resistant. The UV stabilizers added to the material make the colors fade-resistant and the standard properties of the HDPE used in the production of Densetec® Playground Board make it weather-resistant and the perfect choice for outdoor environments. Design potential is unlimited with Densetec® Playground Board. Polymer Industries welcomes custom orders. We can assist you in your design and engineering requirements.
