Materials - 2
PC|PBT (Polycarbonate | Polybutyleneterephthalate blend) Gear cases, automotive (bumpers); applications which require chemical and corrosion resistance, high heat resistance, high impact strength over wide temperature ranges, and high dimensional stability. PE-HD (High Density Polyethylene) Containers in refrigeration units, storage vessels, household goods (kitchenware), seal caps, bases for PET bottles, etc. Major use is in blow-molding applications (packaging applications) PE-LD (Low Density Polyethylene) Closures, bowls, bins, pipe couplings. PEI (Polyetherimide) Automotive (engine components: temperature sensors, fuel and air handling devices), electrical/electronics (connector materials, printed circuit boards, circuit chip carriers, explosion proof boxes), packaging applications, aircraft (interior materials), medical (surgical staplers, tool housings, non implant devices) PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) Automotive (structural components such as mirror backs, and grille supports, electrical parts such as head lamp reflectors and alternator housings), electrical applications (motor housings, electrical connectors, relays, and switches, microwave oven interiors, etc.), industrial applications (furniture chair arms, pump housings, hand tools, etc.). PETG (Glycol-modified PET; Copolyesters) PETGs offer a desirable combination of properties such as clarity, toughness, and stiffness. Applications include medical devices (test tubes and bottles), toys, displays and lighting fixtures, face shields, and refrigerator crisper pans. PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate) Automotive (signal light devices, instrument panels, etc.), medical (blood cuvettes, etc.), industrial (video discs, lighting diffusers, display shelving, etc.), consumer (drinking tumblers, stationery accessories, etc.)
