Secondary bonding

weaker than ionic metallic covalent Hydrogen bonding

Between the positive end of a bond and the negative end of another bond Example water

van der Waals Due to the attraction of all molecules have for each other eg gravitational Forces are weak since masses are small

PS (Polystyrene) PS Homopolymer (crystal)

Clear and colorless with excellent optical properties and high stiffness Brittle Impact polystyrene (IPS) Graft copolymer or blend with elastomers Properties are dependent upon the elastomer content medium impact high impact and super-high impact Copolymers include SAN (poly styrene-acrylonitrile) SBS (butadiene) ABS Expandable PS (EPS) is very popular for cups and insulation foam EPS is made with blowing agents such as pentane and isopentane cell size and distribution

Acetal or Polyoxymethylene (POM)Trade name Derlin

First commercialized in 1960 by Du Pont Similar in properties to Nylon and used for plumbing fixtures pump impellers conveyor belts aerosol stem valves Advantages Easy to fabricate has glossy molded surfaces provide superior fatigue endurance creep resistance stiffness and water resistance Among the strongest and stiffest thermoplastics Resistant to most chemicals stains and organic solvents Disadvantages Poor resistance to acids and bases and difficult to bond Subject to UV degradation and is flammable Toxic fumes released upon degradation

282008 spring 2004 S Kim

PEEK Polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK) and Polyether ketone (PEK) PEEK invented by ICI in 1982 PEK introduced in 1987 Expensive Advantages

Very high continuous use temperature (480F) Outstanding chemical resistance wear resistance Excellent mechanical properties Very low flammability and smoke generation Resistant to high levels of gamma radiation

Disadvantages $$$ high processing temperatures

Aerospace replacement of Al replacement of primary structure Electrical wire coating for nuclear applications oil wells flammability- critical mass transit Semi-conductor wafer carriers which can show better rigidity minimum weight and chemical resistance to fluoropolymers Internal combustion engines (replacing thermosets)
