Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine everyday life without engineering
plastics. In numerous industries, the material has supplanted other
materials such as metal and glass.
In selecting a suitable
plastic for a product, it is necessary to consider the physical,
mechanical, electrical and thermal requirements. But it is not only the
characteristics that are of decisive importance in selecting a plastic.
Among other things, the following questions have to be answered:
- Is approval under food regulations required?
- What colour is the product going to be?
- Is the product subject to fire protection regulations?
On
the basis of our technical datasheets, we have set up a user database.
The entry or selection of various characteristics enables the database
to filter out the plastic that is appropriate for your requirements*:
