Materials - 3
POM (Polyacetal or Polyoxymethylene)
Acetals have a low coefficient of friction and good dimensional stability. This makes it ideal for use in gears and bearings. Due to its high temperature resistance, it is used in plumbing (valve and pump housings), and lawn equipment.
PP (Polypropylene)
Automotive (mostly mineral-filled PP is used: dashboard components, ductwork, fans, and some under-hood components), appliances (doorliners for dishwashers, ductwork for dryers, wash racks and lids for clothes washers, refrigerator liners, kettles etc.), consumer products (lawn/garden furniture, components of lawn mowers, sprinklers, etc.).
PPE PPO (Polyphenylene Ether Blends)
Household appliances (dishwasher, washing machine, etc.), electrical applications such as control housings, fiber-optic connectors, etc.
PS (Polystyrene)
Packaging, housewares (tableware, trays, etc.), electrical (transparent housings, light diffusers, insulating film)
SAN (Styrene Acrylonitrile)
Electrical (receptacles, mixer bowls, housings, etc. for kitchen appliances, refrigerator fittings, chassis for television sets, cassette boxes, etc.), automotive (head lamp bodies, reflectors, glove compartments,instrument panel covers, etc.), household appliances (tableware, cutlery, beakers, etc.), cosmetic packs, etc.
