POM-C (DELRIN®)
An engineering plastic offering high mechanical strength, low friction coefficient, and superior dimensional stability.
Product Description
POM-C (DELRIN®) (Polyacetal Copolymer)is one of the semi-crystalline engineering plastics that stands out with its high mechanical strength, low friction coefficient, and superior wear resistance. It offers stable performance, especially in systems requiring precise tolerances and continuous movement.
POM-C (DELRIN®) materials offer lighter, quieter-running, and lower-maintenance solutions compared to metal alternatives. Thanks to its structure resistant to deformation under load, it provides long-term dimensional stability and is safely used in precision part manufacturing.
POM-C (DELRIN®) engineering plastics are widely used in industry due to their high wear resistance and low friction properties. In Turkey, this material is often referred to by the name "Delrin®". However, Delrin® is a registered trademark of DuPont and actually refers to the POM homopolymer product group.
Material Structure and Technical Properties
POM-C (DELRIN®) offers high strength combined with low friction properties thanks to its semi-crystalline structure. The low moisture absorption rate ensures that the material exhibits stable performance under different environmental conditions.
Technical Features and Advantages
High Mechanical Strength
Resistant to deformation under load, offers safe load-bearing capacity.
Low Friction Coefficient
Ensures smooth operation in moving parts, minimizes energy losses.
High Wear Resistance
Maintains its initial performance even in long-term industrial uses.
Dimensional Stability
Affected minimally by moisture and temperature changes, maintains precision.
Chemical Resistance
Resistant to oils, fuels, and many industrial solvents.
Good Machinability
Highly suitable for CNC and machining, smooth surfaces are obtained.
Technical Performance and Application Behavior
POM-C (DELRIN®) shows high performance, especially in applications where friction and wear are critical. Thanks to its low friction coefficient, it reduces energy loss in systems and extends part life. At the same time, thanks to its high surface quality, it reduces the need for additional surface treatments on machined parts. With its low moisture absorption property, it provides dimensional stability in long-term use.
Application Areas
POM-C is preferred in many industrial applications requiring low friction and high precision.
