TPX
TPX Polymethylpentene (PMP) is a crystalline thermoplastic offering a unique combination of a very low-density value (0.82 g/cc), permeability, heat resistance and releasability (very low surface tension). TPX has outstanding low-dielectric properties which makes it an excellent candidate for high-frequency applications. TPX is an excellent choice for items that require steam sterilization. Advantages of TPX:
- Low moisture absorption
- Dielectric properties
- Chemical resistance
- Heat resistance
- Excellent acoustical properties
Applications:
- Speaker cones
- Gas separating membranes
- Release films
- Carrier films for ceramic slurry
- Antennas
- Ultrasonic imaging equipment
