CELANESE HOSTAFORM C 2521 G Modified POM Resin
CELANESE HOSTAFORM C 2521 G is a stiff – flowing POM copolymer from CELANESE, offering toughness and chemical resistance.
Physical Properties
- Density: With a density of 1.34 g/cc (0.0484 lb/in³) according to ISO 1183, it is a relatively lightweight option for non – structural applications.
- Water Absorption at Saturation: Absorbs 0.80% water at saturation (ISO 62), suggesting potential swelling in wet conditions.
- Melt Flow: Shows a melt flow of 1.5 g/10 min at 190 °C/2.16 kg (ISO 1133), requiring higher processing temperatures for molding.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: Polyoxymethylene (POM) Copolymer
- Modification Features:
- Stiff – flowing grade for efficient injection molding and extrusion.
- Exceptional chemical resistance against solvents, fuels, and strong alkalis.
- High hydrolysis resistance for use in humid environments.
- Good resistance to thermal and oxidative degradation.
- Incorporates modifiers for enhanced toughness, even at low temperatures down to – 40 °C.
Applications:
- Automotive: Utilized for door handles and dashboards, resisting cleaning agents, and for under – hood parts enduring heat and engine fluids.
- Industrial Machinery: Employed to make thick – walled parts for gears and structures, ensuring toughness and long – term chemical resistance.
- Building and Construction: Applied in extruding boards and pipes, withstanding indoor and outdoor conditions due to its stiffness and hydrolysis resistance.
