Examples of some types of thermoplastic characteristics.

Examples of some types of thermoplastic characteristics.

- Poly Vinyl Chlorid (PVC)

Material properties:

a. Hard PVC

Thermoplastic, hard, rigid, transparent, capable of welding and glueing. Resistant to oil, acids, language, alcohol, but less resistant to solvents such as acetone, benzol, esters, temperature resistant up to 80 ° C.

b. Soft PVC

Greatly influenced by the amount of softener material given the softness that occur from such skin to be like rubber. Clay, crack resistant, capable of being used to a temperature of 80 ° C, while resistance to a chemical solution under the hard PVC.

- Poly Styrol (PS)

Thermoplastics, such as glass, easy to be colored, at room temperature is relatively hard and stiff. Odorless and highly flammable, resistant to water, acids, bases, alcohols, oils, but soluble in benzol, gasoline, acetone, ether. Can be glued and welded.

- Poly Methyl Metha Crylat (PMMA)

Thermoplastic, hard, brittle, scratch-resistant, looks like glass, translucent, wear resistant, lightweight, easily colored, odorless, resistant to mild acids, alkalis, petrol and oil, but not resistant to solvents.

- Poly Ethilen (PE)

Thermoplastic, soft material, clay, able to work up to -40 ° C, low water absorption, resistant to acids, bases, solvents, alcohol, gasoline, water, oil, but do not hold HcIO and flammable.

- Polyamide (PA)

The name of the market is Nylon, thermoplastic nature, tenacious in humidity 2% -3%, hard, brittle and stiff in the dry state. Color yellowish, opaque and easily colored. Capable of welded and glued together also able to work on - ^ 40 ° C - 110 ° C.

- Polycarbonate (PC)

Thermoplastics, such as glass, able to beat us, capable of machining high, the shape does not change until heated at a temperature of 135 ° C, non-flammable, resistant to acids software (not concentrated), oil, gasoline and alcohol, are not resistant to alkali and solvents.

- Silicone (Si)

Heat-resistant, has physical properties and excellent chemical, water resistant, capable diginakan at temperatures -90 ° C - 250 ° C, insulation materials, materials for loading compactor high humid areas.

- Polyurethane (PUR)

Is Elastomere, elastic like rubber, rub-resistant, scratch resistant, can be used at a temperature of -30 ° C - 80 ° C, resistant to oil, fuel, not acid resistant, alkali, solvents, hot water and flammable.

- Epoxydeharze

Elastomere, until light golden yellow color, hard and easy to work with machinery, resistant to weather changes and can be used up to 110 ° C, high electrical pengisolir, soft acid-resistant, alkaline alcohol, oil, solvents, soluble in acetone and flammable .
