General Information
This is a thermoplastic with an amorphous structure that stands out for its resistance to chemical agents and its excellent mechanical properties. It has excellent chemical stability and extremely high resistance to fire (self-extinguishing). It has notable resistance to diluted and concentrated acids. It is also a good electrical insulator. It can be welded and glued. As its use is currently subject to regulations in many countries for ecological reasons, it is often substituted by polypropylene.
