POLYOXYMETHYLENE (POM)

Also known as Acetal, polyoxymethylene is a semi-crystalline polymer which is very rigid and has a naturally glossy surface, making it a useful material for a wide range of industries. Acetal is most commonly found in automotive applications, household appliances, and electronics.

Advantages of Polyoxymethylene:

  1. Rigidity – stays strong and doesn’t bend easily
  2. Impact Resistance – strong and stable enough to resist strong impacts
  3. Solvent Resistance – doesn’t corrode or rust due to chemicals and solvents
  4. Glossy surface – smooth, reflective properties
