Acetal Sheets & Acetal Rods (Copolymer)
Acetal Sheets and Acetal Rods (aka POM) acetal copolymer plastic sheets and acetal rods provide high strength and stiffness coupled with enhanced dimensional stability and ease of machining. Acetal Rods and Acetal Sheets are also characterized by a low coefficient of friction and good wear properties especially in wet environments. Because of its high strength, modulus, and resistance to impact and fatigue, Acetal is used as a weight-saving metal replacement. Acetal copolymer overcomes the common problem of centerline porosity in large shapes of Acetal Homopolymer (aka Delrin)
- Acetal Copolymer is preferred to Delrin® in high-pressure applications where centerline porosity is a concern.
- Acetal Copolymer is produced under several brand names including Celcon®, Ultraform® & Acetron®.

![Acriplex™ EX 75 (impact modified)]( "Acriplex™ EX 75 (impact modified)")
Acriplex™ EX 75 (impact modified)
Acriplex™ EX 75 impact-modified acrylic sheet from Professional Plastics offers superior impact-resistance than standard acrylic sheets. The result is longer-life and greater safety in glazing applications where impact is a potential threat. Applications include Golf Cart Windshields, UTV windshields, off-road vehicle windshields, equipment screens, and other transparent glazing needs. Generally, PMMA is very hard material. Hardness is reduced with addition of the modifier as it imparts it's elastomeric structure into the polymer matrix. The impact modifier also slightly reduces transparency in accordance with the percentage of modifier that is added to the base PMMA resin. This modifier also slightly lowers the color value in whiteness and yellowness Index. These transparency and brightness changes are minimal, and meet industry standards for impact-modified acrylic sheet. Please contact contact customer service for samples and pricing. Professional Plastics provides Acriplex™ EX 75 sheets and cnc fabricated parts to customer specifications.
Acriplex™ is a trade name of Professional Plastics, Inc., and all Acriplex™ products meet the highest standards for quality and consistency.

![CMP Retaining Ring - Techtron® PPS Tubes]( "CMP Retaining Ring - Techtron® PPS Tubes")
CMP Retaining Ring - Techtron® PPS Tubes
Techtron® PPS CMP Retaining rings used in CMP machines utilize high-purity & long-wearing Techtron PPS.
PPS Retaining rings that hold 300 mm semiconductor wafers during chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) must withstand repeated exposure to harsh chemicals and abrasives. One way that semiconductor fabricators gain the stiffness, purity and toughness needed in CMP rings is to use rings machined from Techtron® PPS. These shapes are made from a proprietary grade of Fortron® polyphenylene sulfide (PPS).
Techtron® PPS shapes extend ring life significantly compared to acetal, polyester and generic PPS. Process experience shows that rings made from Techtron® PPS stock shapes withstand 2,000 to 5,000 CMP cycles compared to 1,000 to 2,000 cycles for rings made of these other generic PPS materials.
In CMP, a layer of silicon dioxide, aluminum, copper or other material on a semiconductor wafer is polished to an exacting flatness before circuitry is etched on it. The slurry used varies in abrasiveness and pH depending on the surface material. During CMP, a polishing pad rotates against a wafer mounted on a ceramic base and held in a retaining ring. In addition to withstanding the polishing compound, the ring must be dimensionally stable and cannot flex during polishing.
Techtron® PPS blanks are 12- to 24-in.-long tubes that are machined into retaining rings varying in height from 0.33 to 1.0 in. The 12-inch-diameter rings (I.D.) used with 300 mm wafers have wall thicknesses of 0.375 to 2.5 in. The Techtron® PPS used for ring blanks is a high-toughness grade that reduces chipping and breaking and has a tensile elongation of up to 25 percent.

Delrin® 570 - 20% Glass-Filled Acetal
Delrin® 570, this grade has 20% glass fiber filler. It has much greater mechanical properties over unfilled acetals.
Delrin® Glass Filled provides the same basic properties as Delrin®, with added strength. Delrin® Glass Filled is a tough material that provides the added advantages of greater stiffness, improved creep resistance, low warpage and higher dimensional stability than Delrin® because it possesses surface characteristics of Teflon®. Parts designed using glass-filled will demonstrate good impact resistance, low deformation under load and high fatigue endurance. Delrin® Glass Filled is an excellent choice for its long-term mechanical stability in applications such as Anti-Friction Parts, Application Bearings, Gears and Parts requiring greater stiffness, Electrical Components and other Close Tolerance Precision Parts and Fuel System Parts.
Note: This item is NOT a standard stock item. Minimum order & lead-time may apply.

HMW PE 500 - Polyethylene
High Molecular Weight Polyethylene / HMW PE 500 grade is very extensively used as a wear or abrasion resistant component on conveyors, chutes, troughs, tension bars and liners. Being lightly 'softer' than UHMW, HMW PE is often specified for cutting boards because it does not blunt the knives as quickly and is food approved. HMW (PE 500 aka HD 500) polyethylene has a density 500,000 g/mol, compared with 300,000 g/mol for standard HDPE or 1,000,000+ g/mol (per ITS) to 3.1+ million (per ATS) for UHMW. HMW PE 500 exhibits a good combination of stiffness, toughness, mechanical damping ability with wear & abrasion resistance.
- HDPE = 300,000 Min Molecular Weight
- HMW = 500,000 Min Molecular Weight
- UHMW* = 1,000,000 Min Molecular Weight (per International Testing Standard)
- UHMW** = 3,100,000 Min Molecular Weight (American Testing Standards)
*According to the International Standards Organization (ISO), UHMWPE has a molecular weight of at least 1 million g/mole and degree of polymerization of 36,000
**According to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) it has a molecular weight of greater than 3.1 million g/mole and degree of polymerization of 110,000
Typical applications of High Molecular Weight Polyethylene 500 grade: for use with food contact particularly trap and preparation surfaces (food boards, butchers blocks, food machinery/production parts, dough scrapers, food board racking, catering display)
