Polyimide And High Performance Plastics

Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics has just completed a new comprehensive catalog which includes new grades of Meldin® polyimide and high performance thermoplastics materials.

Meldin, the most complete range of polyimide and engineered thermoplastic materials available, are offered in custom molded, machined components and stock shapes for machining. The materials retain their critical properties over temperatures ranging from cryogenic through + 600° F (315° C) for continuous operation, and may be used intermittently up to + 900° F (482° C). Superior strength and rigidity, combined with self- lubricating properties, provide long, maintenance-free service for the most demanding bearing and structural applications. This material has many excellent applications for engines, medical devices, aircraft/aerospace power systems, electronics, chemical processing, semiconductor and industrial equipment.
