Hygroscopic polymers. On the other hand, most engineering-grade polymers have a chemical nature that causes them to attract and absorb moisture from the surrounding ambient air. Most engineering polymers are hygroscopic polymers. [Pg.535]

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) an amorphous polymer is available in an engineering grade. It is extensively used in beverage bottles and films. [Pg.428]

Moisture can accumulate on the surface of any plastic material, and some polymers actually absorb moisture into the pellet itself. Materials that absorb moisture—usually engineering-grade materials like nylon or polycarbonate—are called hygroscopic. Those that do not have the same attraction or affinity for moisture, and do not absorb it, are called nonhygroscopic polymers. They include commodity polymers such as polyolefins. [Pg.535]

Increasingly, more engineering-grade plastic materials are being made available to the thermoforming processes. They allow manufacturers to match the physical properties of the polymer to the application. With these materials, new challenges to decorating thermoformed plastic parts are introduced, because their respective surface properties can be very dissimilar. [Pg.20]

Small amounts of polymer-grade terephthaHc acid and dimethyl terephthalate are used as polymer raw materials for a variety of appHcations, eg, adhesives and coatings. They are also used to make high performance polymers or engineering resins. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) is itself an engineering resin, although one more widely used is poly (butylene) terephthalate, formed by reaction with 1,4-butanediol as the comonomer. [Pg.492]

Good electrical insulation properties with exceptional tracking resistance for an engineering thermoplastic and, in particular, for an aromatic polymer. In tracking resistance most grades are generally superior to most grades of polycarbonates, modified PPOs, PPS and the polyetherimides. [Pg.726]

Polyester, thermoplastic TP polyesters have different grades. Polybutylene tereph-thalate (PBT) a crystalline polymer and an excellent engineering material. It has marginal chemical resistance but resists moisture, creep, fire, fats, and oils. Molded items are hard, bright colored, and retain their impact strength at temperatures as low as — 40°F (-40°C). Uses include auto louvers, under-the-hood electricals, and mechanical parts. [Pg.428]
