Ertacetal™ C LQ POM-C

Copolymer Polyoxymethylene

Ertacetal™ C LQ POM-C is a white/natural-colored copolymer polyoxymethylene specifically developed for laser writability via IR-YAG and UV-YAG technologies. The acetal copolymer itself is more resistant to hydrolysis, strong alkalis and thermal-oxidative degradation than the homopolymer acetal grad and offers identical physical properties and machinability to the standard Acetron™ GP/Ertacetal™ C POM-C, including low moisture absorption and porosity-free composition.
