Properties

• extremely good dimensional stability
• low absorption of moisture
• hardly inflammable and self-extinguishing
• low smoke development
• good resistance to high-energy radiation
• exceptionally low radiation absorption in the microwave range
• high tensile strength, stiffness and hardness over a large temperature range
• good machinability
• good thermoformability
• good adhesive properties
• good weldability
• high continuous service temperature
• low linear coefficient of thermal expansion
• good electrical insulating properties 

Field of application
