Brand information
Amcel® is a high-performance POM acetal copolymer developed by Celanese, a global leader in engineered materials. Known for its excellent dimensional stability, low friction, and high strength, Amcel acetal is a trusted choice for manufacturers seeking reliable and durable acetal plastic solutions.
What is Acetal?
Acetal, also known as polyoxymethylene (POM), is a type of thermoplastic polymer recognized for its strength, stiffness, and low moisture absorption. Copolymer acetal like Amcel® offers improved resistance to hydrolysis and enhanced toughness compared to homopolymer alternatives, making it ideal for demanding engineering applications.
Benefits of Amcel Acetal Copolymer:
- Excellent mechanical strength and rigidity
- Superior dimensional stability and creep resistance
- Low coefficient of friction and good wear properties
- Excellent resistance to fuels, solvents, and chemicals
- Reduced porosity for improved machinability
Common Acetal Applications:
Automotive components (fuel system parts, gears, clips)
Industrial machinery (bearings, rollers, housings)
Consumer goods (zippers, appliance parts, fasteners)
Electrical and electronic applications (connectors, insulators)
Whether you're seeking a dependable acetal plastic for precision parts or durable components in high-wear environments, Celanese Amcel® delivers consistent performance backed by a legacy of innovation.
