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® 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

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® 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.

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.

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.
