Performance Characteristics

Physical Properties: POM sheets and POM rods have a smooth and glossy surface, appearing hard and dense. They are generally white or yellowish, with high crystallinity, good colorability, and excellent dimensional stability, along with minimal water absorption.

Mechanical Properties: POM sheets and POM rods exhibit high hardness and rigidity, excellent wear resistance, self-lubricating properties, and creep resistance. This allows them to withstand high loads and repeated impacts without deformation.

Thermal Properties: POM sheets and POM rods have a high heat distortion temperature and can be used continuously within a temperature range of -40°C to 104°C.

Electrical Properties: POM sheets and POM rods maintain stable dielectric loss and dielectric constant within a wide frequency and temperature range, along with good arc resistance.

Chemical Properties: POM sheets and POM rods exhibit good resistance to solvents, oils, weak acids, and weak bases.

Advantages

High mechanical strength, rigidity, and hardness, along with excellent elasticity, sliding properties, and wear resistance.

Good creep resistance, even at low temperatures, and high impact strength.

Excellent dimensional stability and mechanical properties.

Physiologically inert, suitable for contact with food.

Good electrical properties and environmental resistance, as well as solvent resistance.

Good resilience.

Application Fields

POM sheets and POM rods have extensive applications in the automotive, electronics, machinery, and medical industries. Specifically:

Automotive Industry: POM material is widely used in automobile manufacturing, mainly for interior parts, transmission systems, fuel systems, and seat adjustment mechanisms. Its excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance make it an ideal choice for automotive components.

Electronics: POM material finds extensive applications in the electronics industry, such as electrical switches, sockets, insulators, and electronic connectors. Its good electrical and mechanical properties meet the requirements of electronic products for material performance.

Mechanical Engineering: POM material is widely used in the mechanical field for manufacturing gears, bearings, sliding bushings, and transmission chains. Its low friction coefficient and self-lubricating properties reduce energy loss and friction wear in mechanical devices.

FAQ

1. Q: What are the advantages of POM rods compared to nylon rods?

A: POM rods offer superior wear and fatigue resistance, excellent self-lubrication, and excellent performance in both dry and wet environments. Nylon rods offer high-temperature resistance and excellent insulation, but POM rods better meet the wear and fatigue resistance requirements in applications such as machinery manufacturing.

2. Q: What are the advantages of POM rods compared to polyethylene rods?

A: POM rods offer far greater rigidity and compressive strength than polyethylene rods, making them less susceptible to deformation under high loads. POM rods also offer excellent thermal stability and maintain performance at high temperatures, whereas polyethylene easily deforms and degrades at high temperatures.

3. Q: What are the advantages of POM rods compared to polycarbonate (PC) rods?

A: POM rods offer superior rigidity and impact resistance, outperforming PC rods in harsh environments. Furthermore, POM rods offer excellent wear resistance and self-lubrication, making them suitable for manufacturing high-friction components, advantages PC rods lack.

4. Q: How does POM rod differ from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) rod?

A: POM rod has higher mechanical strength and greater rigidity. Although PTFE rod has lubricity, POM rod components experience much less wear over extended periods of operation, making it more suitable for wear-resistant applications.

5. Q: What are the advantages of POM rod compared to ordinary plastic rods?

A: POM rod is a thermoplastic engineering plastic with high mechanical strength, high hardness, and good elasticity. It also offers excellent sliding properties, wear resistance, and dimensional stability. These properties are difficult for ordinary plastic rods to match, and POM rods offer superior performance.
