Product Brochure (60kb - pdf)
|
Non-carbon-filled, permanently
static dissipative material which is non-migratory and
non-humidity dependent. With enhanced lubricity, Pomalux SD-A
provides superior wear resistance and ease of machining. Its
extremely low outgassing values and non-sloughing
characteristics make it ideal for applications where particulate
generation cannot be tolerated. Enhanced lubricity, chemically
resistant, and dimensionally stable.
The following physical property
information is based on typical values of the resin.
