New Hostaform HS15 is the world's first copolymer to deliver outstanding mechanical, chemical and thermal properties in one innovative acetal.

It offers customers:

· Superior mechanical properties vs. conventional acetal copolymers — up to 10 percent better strength; 10 percent better stiffness; and 50 percent better toughness

· Broadest design space of any acetal POM available today

· Lower costs through improved processing and thermal stability

· Excellent chemical resistance to hot water, automotive fuels, fluids and concentrated alkaline solutions (pH4 to pH14) for new POM applications.

"This new generation of POM offers features that clearly differentiate it from other copolymers and provides wider design latitude. It's the first acetal copolymer with this set of properties. Our near-term plans focus on applications that were impossible for our POM products in the past — ones that were previously addressed using polyamides or metals."

Hostaform HS15 Expands High Performance POM Family

"As the global leader in POM innovation, Ticona scientists continue to significantly expand the application landscape for what was previously possible with conventional POM ...With new Hostaform HS15, Ticona expands its customer's design space into applications where POM has never been able to play."
