Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal, polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. As with many other synthetic polymers, it is produced by different chemical firms with slightly different formulas and sold variously by such names as Delrin, Kocetal, Ultraform, Celcon, Ramtal, Duracon, Kepital, Polypenco, Tenac and Hostaform.
POM is characterized by its high strength, hardness and rigidity to −40 °C. POM is intrinsically opaque white because of its high crystalline composition but can be produced in a variety of colors. POM has a density of 1.410–1.420 g/cm3.
According to CFI, due to price cuts by DuPont and other manufacturers, the price of POM made in China has dropped recently, and the ex-factory prices of POM manufacturers (Yankuang Lunan, Yuntianhua, Zhonghao, Kelong) have generally been reduced by 1000-1300 yuan/ton, which is supported by cost prices. weaken.
