Altymid ageing and prices

Altymid ageing and prices

(OP)
Hi everyone,

does someone know where to find some altymid plates, ageing tests (lifetime) and prices?

we need a lifetime of 8 years at 300°C in ambiant atmosphere, do you think this high temperature polymer could bear these high temperature?

RE: Altymid ageing and prices



I would have thought the manufacturers would be a good first choice...just a guess.

Thank you for yourhelp... That was the first thing I read... I'm looking for more useful information...

RE: Altymid ageing and prices


As a guess, as the max temp stated is 315 (or 317)deg C, I would assume that is for short term excursions rather than continuous. It is probably also under zero stress.

Cynic? Moi?

To answer your question - probably not.

That confirms what I was thinking, but I have no proof for that, and I have to justify my choices on facts... Celazole is really better, but what an expensive price!

RE: Altymid ageing and prices

So what's wrong with Al ceramic or Steel?

Have you tried calling DuPont. They came up near the top of my first google search as a manufacturer of polyimide.

They normally supply excellent technical support.

They can certainly recommend a converter to you from their customer list.
