Bakelite® Molding Compounds for Household and Appliance
Molding compounds based on Bakelite® resins can be easily shaped into an infinite variety of contours and forms and can be modified in various ways to provide added dimensional stability, flame resistance, electrical conductivity or slip resistance. From stove fittings to housings for domestic appliances, Bakelite® thermoset molding compounds are utilized when there must be a combination of:
- Good electrical insulating properties and high heat resistance
- Rigidity
- Surface hardness
- High elastic modulus
- Good solvent resistance
Even if the recommended operating temperature range is temporarily exceeded, dimensional stability of these compounds will be maintained. Bakelite customer service and application research, as well as our worldwide distribution network means you have a reliable experienced raw material supplier. Our technical experts can help customers choose the optimal product for their manufacturing process requirements and performance needs.
Bakelite® Thermoset Molding Compounds for Cookware and other Applications
