Next generation Hostaform® POM
Ticona Hostaform® POM S 9364 offers a modified chemical structure to meet the increasing impact requirements for automotive window lifts, safety systems, fasteners and other demanding applications such as conveyor belts.
This new grade offers 50% more impact resistance, 100% more weldline strength versus conventional POM materials. This step change in the intrinsic properties and chemical structure of Hostaform® POM can help you to:
Hostaform® POM S 9364 is able to deliver performance in a host of applications, including fasteners that need excellent chemical resistance, industrial applications that need strong mechanical properties, windshield wiper end caps that need impact resistance and conveyor systems that not only need impact resistance, but also excellent friction/wear properties and dimensional stability.
Other key properties of Hostaform® POM include:
Outstanding wear resistance
Long-term fatigue and creep resistance
Tough down to 40 degrees Celsius
High strength and rigidity over a broad temperature range
