Analyzing differences amoung Copolymer Acetal and Dupont Delrin Homopolymer in Round rods or sheets and plate

Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s very easy to turn, although it does require reduced speeds. I have used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought countless items from Industrial Plastic. The small parts usually ship quickly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, and they have comparable physical properties. They do look the same, but in practical use there are a few differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with any plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many uses and is especially of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for sheet Acetal is in boating applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.

Covestro Makrolon Polycarbonate Sheeting offering light weight and break resistance

Makrolon Polycarbonate products give you a great blend of helpful features including temperature resistance, impact resistance and optical properties position polycarbonates between commodity plastic materials and engineering materials. Polycarbonate is a very high quality material. Although it has high impact-resistance, it possesses a lower scratch-resistance and thus a hard coating can be applied to polycarbonate eye protection as well as polycarbonate exterior vehicle components. The characteristics relating to polycarbonate are along the lines of those of common Acrylic materials, except polycarbonate is definitely stronger, it is usable in a wider temperature range and is a bit more expensive. This plastic polymer is highly transparent to visible light and has better light transmission characteristics than several types of glass. Polycarbonate has a glass transition temperature of around 150 °C (302 °F), in order that it softens slowly above this point and flows above about 300°...
