PAI - Polyamide-imide

Crystalline polymer. Material with high mechanical and thermal properties (up to 260°C.). It resists to creep under load and to wear, its friction coefficient is low.

FEATURES

• high temperature. It resists beyond 250°C. Dimensional stability
• high E-modulus
• good abrasion resistance and low friction coefficient
• flame resistance (V.0)

WEAK POINT

• very high cost
• the machining is difficult

APPLICATION

• mechanical: the dimensional stability at temperature is high, as well as the heat resistance. Components obtained by PAI have a very high wear resistance and are self-lubricating. It is used to produce high performance pieces at low as well as at high temperatures: bearings, cams, precision gears, etc.
• electrical: very good dielectric and insulating properties
• chemical: very good chemical resistance
• food contact: it is not used in contact with food
