The plastic is highly pure with low outgassing in accordance with ESA regulation ECSS Q 70 20.

Starting with the base polymer TECASINT 4011, TECASINT 4021 with 15% graphite has been developed. Thanks to the improved friction and wear properties, TECASINT 4011 is particularly suitable for tribological applications. It is also suitable for dry applications since the material is self lubricating.

Compared with the other TECASINT materials the TECASINT 4000 series exhibits very low moisture absorption and high oxidative stability along with improved chemical resistance.

Rigidity and modulus are significantly increased vis a vis conventional polyimides in a temperature range up to 260°C. It also has minimal thermal and electrical conductivity. The plastic is highly pure and displays low outgassing in accordance with ESA regulation ECSS Q 70 20.

Starting with the base polymer TECASINT 5011, TECASINT 5051 with 30 % glass fibre has been developed. This material is characterised by reduced thermal elongation, reduced moisture absorption and high wear strength during chip test applications in the semiconductor industry. It has good electrical insulation properties and surface hardness, and also high rigidity. The glass transition temperature is 340°C, while the maximum service temperature may be – for a short time – up to 300 °C.

The unfilled grade TECASINT 5111 natural is based on the high-performance plastic polyimide, which is characterised by its very good thermal stability with low thermal expansion. Polyimides are non-melting polymers with a service temperature of 300 °C, which is considerably higher than that of PEEK or PPS. In addition, TECASINT 5111 natural has a high creep resistance. These properties makes PI plastic ideal for applications where high temperature resistance is required, such as in the aerospace industry. TECASINT 5111 natural has good chemical resistance, especially to light acids and many organic solvents. In combination with the very good electrical insulating properties of the PI material, TECASINT 5111 natural is also perfectly suited for applications in the semiconductor industry, electrical engineering or mechanical engineering. Moreover, the polyimide material has good mechanical properties, good wear resistance and is also resistant to high-energy radiation.

TECASINT 2391 has been developed with 15 % MoS2 from the base polymer TECASINT 2011. It has optimum friction and wear properties in a vacuum, which means it can be used in space travel applications, in a vacuum or in inert gases (techn. dry). The plastic displays low outgassing in accordance with ESA regulation ECSS Q 70 20.

Starting with the base polymer TECASINT 2011, the plastic TECASINT 2061 with 15 % graphite and 10 % PTFE has been developed. This plastic's properties include, above all, low static friction and a low coefficient of friction. Owing to its self lubricating property, TECASINT 2061 is very good for dry application. The material is suitable for low friction and low wear applications at medium temperatures (<200°C) and loads.

Starting with the base polymer TECASINT 2011, TECASINT 2031 with 40 % graphite has been developed. The plastic has high resistance to thermal ageing and improved self lubrication. This is accompanied by minimised thermal elongation for dimensionally stable components and increased creep strength.

TECASINT 2021 is a plastic reinforced with 15 % graphite and based on the base polymer TECASINT 2011. It is particularly suitable for tribological applications owing to its improved friction and wear behaviour. Thanks to its self lubricating property, TECASINT 2021 is well suited to lubricated and dry applications.

TECASINT 2011 is one of the unfilled natural grades. It has a very high modulus of elasticity, high rigidity and hardness. Compared with TECASINT 1011 it has significantly reduced moisture absorption, higher toughness and better machining properties. Within the TECASINT 2000 series the material has the maximum strength and elongation, together with a high modulus of elasticity and minimal thermal and electrical conductivity. TECASINT 2011 is highly pure with low outgassing in accordance with ESA regulation ECSS Q 70 20.
