Ertacetal® C LQ POM-C
Ertacetal® C LQ 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 grade, and offers identical physical properties and machinability to the standard Acetron® GP / Ertacetal® C POM-C, including low moisture absorption and porosity-free composition.

Acetron® C Sterra™ POM-C
Acetron® C Sterra™ is a general purpose, copolymer acetal grade with recycled contents that is often favored for its porosity free nature. This recycled POM-C also exhibits low moisture absorption and excellent machinability capabilities, making it a very versatile material that can excel in a multitude of environments.
As part of the Sterra™ product portfolio, Acetron® C Sterra™ contains recycled POM-C and therefore is associated with a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to similar materials derived from non-recycled feedstocks. For details, please refer to the respective environmental datasheet.

Acetron® (Ertacetal® H POM-H)
Acetron® Polyoxymethylene POM-H / Ertacetal® H Polyoxymethylene POM-H is a homopolymer acetal grade that offers superior mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness, and creep resistance, in addition to a much lower thermal expansion rate and increased wear resistance when compared to copolymer acetal grades. Due to these characteristics, Acetron® POM-H / Ertacetal® H POM-H excel in a variety of applications including small diameter, thin-walled bushings and bearings, gears, electrical components, valves, and fluid handling components.

Acetron® AF Blend (Ertacetal® H-TF POM-H)
Acetron® AF Blend / Ertacetal® H-TF POM-H is a unique thermoplastic material for use in moving parts in which low friction and long wear resistance are important. The material has a high strength, toughness, dimensional stability and good machinability as well as improved wear characteristics over unfilled POM-H. Unblended Acetron® AF Blend / Ertacetal® H-TF POM-H offers a slightly higher limiting PV and lower coefficient of friction due to additional PTFE content. This added PTFE typically decreases the wear capability and impact strength. Acetron® AF 100 is available on a custom basis.

Acetron® GP FG (Ertacetal® C FG POM-C)
Acetron® GP Polyoxymethylene POM-C FG (Food Grade) / Ertacetal® C Polyoxymethylene POM-C FG (Food Grade) is a general purpose, copolymer acetal grade that is favored for its porosity free nature, as well as its higher resistance to hydrolysis, strong alkalis, and thermal oxidative degradation than homopolymer acetal grades. These food grade, POM-C shapes also offer low moisture absorption and excellent machinability capabilities, making it a very versatile material that can excel in a multitude of environments. Due to these characteristics and their compliance with compositional FDA 21 CFR § 177.2470, EU 10/2011, USDA, NSF, Canada AG, and 3A-Dairy requirements, components made from this material are used frequently for food contact applications.
