Are there different grades of Delrin?
General purpose grades of Delrin® are available in several basic melt flow series: 100, 500, 900, and 1700. These differ primarily in melt viscosity with 100 being the most viscous and 1700 the most fluid. Delrin® 100, 500 and 900 are known around the world for their outstanding mechanical properties.
What Delrin 570?
DELRIN® 570 is a 20% glass filled homopolymer acetal with enhanced dimensional stability, high stiffness, and low creep for superior part performance and higher mechanical properties at elevated temperatures when compared to unfilled DELRIN®.
What is stronger than Delrin?
Chemical Resistance Acetal has a better resistance to the effects of hot water and strong caustic solutions with a high pH value when compared to Delrin®. This makes Acetal a better choice for parts and materials handling applications involving the use of strong base chemicals.
Is Delrin stronger than acetal?
Delrin® is an acetal homopolymer and has a uniform backbone with a larger crystalline block structure than acetal copolymers providing better chemical bonding. As a result, Delrin® is the stiffest and strongest unreinforced technical engineering polymer available.
Can Delrin be reused?
Recyclable. As a thermoplastic material, Delrin® can be recycled using industry standard recovery techniques.
What Delrin 500?
DELRIN®500AF blend stock shapes are a 20% PTFE fiber filled homopolymer acetal. It is designed for applications requiring low wear and and/or low coefficient of friction against steel, itself, and other plastics.
What Delrin 150?
acetal homopolymer
Delrin® 150 is a high viscosity acetal homopolymer for extrusion processes. It has excellent thermal stability, low die deposit, and enhanced crystallization for low porosity. The material offers very high stiffness, low warpage, and low creep for superior part performance under stress.
What color is Delrin 150?
Delrin® Acetal Sheet Homopolymer Color, Delrin®150, Red, (0.031 in x 24 in x 48 in)
What temperature does Delrin melt?
347°F (175°C)
Polyoxymethylene/Melting point
Delrin® acetal resin is a crystalline resin with a melting point of 177°C (350°F). The preferred melt temperature range is 205–225°C (400–440°F) for standard grades and 195–215°C (383–420°F) for impact modified grades (Delrin® 100ST and Delrin® 500T).
What is white Delrin?
Delrin (150 NC010) White Delrin is an advanced acetal homopolymer developed by DuPont using the latest Dupont Delrin 150 NC010 resin technology. Delrin possesses outstanding characteristics of: stiffness, tensile strength, and creep resistance under a wide range of temperature and humidity conditions.
What temperature can Delrin withstand?
Thermal Properties Delrin does not use plasticizing for toughness: and so does not become brittle at low temperatures. Impact resistance at -40° F is only 20% less than that at room temperature. Delrin’s upper service temperatures are: 180° F in air, 150° F in water, with brief peaks to 250° F.
Can Delrin be melted?
The recommended melt temperature for Delrin® is 215+/-5ºC highlighted area) at which the melt for standard grades will remain perfectly stable for over 30 minutes. For best results, machine nozzles and hot runners used with Delrin® should be set to 190ºC.
What is Delrin used for?
From the manufacturer: Delrin is used for high-load mechanical applications, such as gears, safety restraints, door systems, conveyor belts, healthcare delivery devices, and components across a diverse range of products and industries.
What is glue for Delrin?
You can’t glue Delrin to anything . Cyanoacrylate does a fair job but nothing bonds to it well. Try E-6000. Its made by Ecclectic Corp, and you will usually find it at a plumbing supply place. Goop is also made by Ecclectic, but is thinner.
What is Delrin made of?
Keck clips made of polyoxymethylene. Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal, polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability.
What kind of plastic is Delrin?
Delrin, a brand of the thermoplastic Acetal , is an engineering plastic used in precision parts that require high stiffness, low friction and excellent dimensional stability. Acetal is a tough material with very low abrasion properties.
