Poly-ESD is a conductive polyacetal. This class is designed specifically for use in applications where POM C characteristics are required, but with the added benefit of good electrical conductivity, such as in electrical applications and explosion sensitive areas. For ATEX (explosive atmosphere) cases, conductivity should be <109 Ohm (surface resistivity measurement).
main characteristics
- Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
- High mechanical strength, stiffness and fluency
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Excellent machining (better than Polyamides and Polyethylenes)
- Low water absorption
Applications
- Generally all applications where good thermal conductivity is required, coupled with good dimensional stability and good surface finish.
