Tests for Thermoplastic Materials Used in the Electrical and Electronic Industries

From DuPont Engineering Polymers
 

 

The purpose of this report is to give:

A summary of the major electrical, flammability standards for thermoplastic materials covering property definition, test description, and significance.
Literature data and test results for these major electrical, flammability and heat testing standards for a range of DuPont's thermoplastic materials currently used in the electrical and electronic market.

Products & Services
Resins and compounds are pellets, liquid resins, bulk molding compounds, or other unfinished materials that are ready for shape fabrication or bond formation. Search by Specification | Learn more about Resins and Compounds
Fabricated plastic parts and semi-finished shapes include molded, cast, extruded and machined parts made from any polymeric materials. Search by Specification | Learn more about Fabricated Plastic Parts and Semi-Finished Shapes
Molding compounds and resins are industrial plastics and polymers that are suitable for forming. They are available as pellets, liquids, and powders and are used in processes such as injection molding, compression molding, reaction injection molding (RIM), resin transfer molding (RTM), and blow molding.
