Resin materials used in plastic injection molding have changed significantly in recent years as advancements to joining plastics with fillers and reinforcement materials has become more common in many industrial applications to improve part performance and strength. High heat resins are mainly good metal replacement options as provide unbelievable benefits in the areas of chemical resistance, weight savings, and sliding friction characteristics.
In the preceding times, plastics were not known to be highly heat resistant materials and it is becoming more known that many high performance resins can be put to use at temperatures up to 572 degrees Fahrenheit – depending on the part / product’s environmental factors and exposure to chemicals.
Additionally, these great characteristics can be maintained at high permanent operating temperatures. High temperature and exotic resins may cost more than commodity-grade resins up-front; however, these materials may add a remarkable amount of durability and performance characteristics to your complex parts – resulting in the reduction of overall production costs.
The material Properties to consider:
- Thermal expansion
- Strength and modulus
- Creep strain and stress relaxation
- Degradation
High heat resins essentially hold characteristics or can be engineered to have any of the following characteristics enhancing performance in extreme environments:
- Low or high thermal conductivity
- Excellent wear properties and Low rates of thermal expansion
- Good sealing characteristics with Creep resistance
- Long-term thermal stability
- Resistance to hot water and steam
- Abrasion resistance and Chemical resistance
- Dimensional stability with Flame resistant
- Transparent / translucent and Low permeability
- Ability to maintain their mechanical properties at very low and very high temperatures
