polyoxymethylene

L. Grigoletto is the first coating service to use LEHVOSS’ PFAS-free anti-friction coating

Iranpolymer/Baspar  The base polymer is a highly abrasion-resistant polyoxymethylene (POM). Its sliding properties are achieved by means of a PTFE modification. Now, a PFAS-free variant of the material has been developed. L. Grigoletto GmbH from Lüdenscheid is the first user of…

Renewable energy powers POM depolymerisation in new study

Iranpolymer/Baspar  Plastics recycling through depolymerisation has been successfully demonstrated mainly for PET, polystyrene and polylactic acid. Now, a research team at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has shown that electro-chemical depolymerisation of polyoxymethylene, or POM, is also feasible. POM is…
