BASF Ultraform N2720 M210 POM Resin

Physical Properties

• Bulk Density: Ranges 0.650–0.900 g/cc (0.0235–0.0325 lb/in³), indicating variable loose packing for flexible handling and storage applications.
• Density: Tested per ISO 1183, density is 1.48 g/cc (0.0535 lb/in³), reflecting a compact structure suitable for mid-strength mechanical uses.
• Moisture Absorption at Equilibrium: At 23°C/50% RH (ISO 62), it’s 0.20%, ensuring low hygroscopicity and dimensional stability in ambient conditions.
• Water Absorption at Saturation: Per ISO 62, saturation absorption is 0.80%, showing moderate moisture tolerance for non-immersion environments.
• Linear Mold Shrinkage, Flow: By ISO 2577, flow shrinkage is 0.017 cm/cm (0.017 in/in), indicating consistent contraction along the material flow direction.
• Linear Mold Shrinkage, Transverse: Per ISO 2577, transverse shrinkage is 0.019 cm/cm (0.019 in/in), with slightly higher contraction perpendicular to flow.
• Melt Flow: As per ISO 1133 at 190°C/2.16 kg, the rate is 10.36 g/10 min, demonstrating balanced processability for efficient injection molding.
