General Info
ACETRON® POM-H is MCAM’s (Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials Formerly Quadrant EPP) homopolymer acetal.
It offers slightly higher mechanical properties than Acetron® GP POM-C Acetal, but may contain a low-density center, especially in larger cross-sections.
Acetron® GP POM-C Acetal also offers better chemical resistance
than homopolymer acetal.
Acetron® POM-H s better suited for small diameter, thin-walled bushings that benefit from the additional strength and rigidity of homopolymer acetal.
