KEPITAL: A Crystallized Resin

KEPITAL, a copolymer with - [C-C] bonds, is a type of crystallized resin with the formula -(CH2-O)n-(CH2-CH20)m-. As an acetal copolymer, KEPITAL is well-known for its unique properties.

General Characteristics of KEPITAL as an Acetal Copolymer:

• Fatigue resistance
• Resistance to creep
• Resistance to friction and wear
• Wide range of working temperature
• High tolerance to organic chemicals and alkalis
• Long-term dimensional stability
• Better thermal stability and stronger resistance to alkalis than Acetal Homopolymer
   

Distinctive Features of KEPITAL:

• Excellent thermal stability at moulding
• Better flow enabling high-speed production
• Low deposit on the mould surface during processing
   

Characteristics of Homo KEPITAL:

• High viscosity and unfilled Homo POM
• Excellent mechanical property and stiffness
• Good toughness, impact strength, and elongation property
• Wider processing window
• Resistance to water, gasoline, solvent, and many kinds of neutral pH chemicals
• Good dimensional stability
• Good wear property
   

Comparison of Homo-POM and Co-POM: Homo-POM has the simplest structure among ether polymers. Due to this structure, it shows better mechanical properties than Co-POM.
