Description

Long-Term Heat Resistance: Excellent stability of physical and mechanical properties at elevated temperatures thanks to high glass transition temperature of 217°C. available with relative thermal indices (RTI) up to 180°C

  • Strength and Stiffness: Outstanding strength and amorphous thermoplastic among the available alternatives, with predictable stiffness and strength up to 200°C. unfilled, transparent grades are equal in strength to other thermoplastics with opacifying fillers.
  • Dimensional Stability: Among the most dimensionally stable thermoplastics available, offering predictability over a wide temperature range. filled grades offer exceptionally high-tolerance dimensional capabilities.
  • Environmental Stress & Cracking Resistance: Unlike most other amorphous thermoplastics, ultem resins retain strength and resist stress cracking when exposed to automotive and aircraft fluids, aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, acids, and weak aqueous solutions.
  • Flammability, Smoke Generation and Toxicity: Inherent flame resistance without additives in most grades - exceptionally difficult to ignite, with a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 47%, meeting ul94 v0 specifications in sections as thin as 0.41 mm. generates extremely low smoke per the nbs smoke evolution test, with products of combustion no more toxic than those of wood.
