<strong>Ultraform</strong> ® (POM)<br />

is the trade name for <strong>BASF</strong>’s product line of thermoplastically<br />

processable copolymeric polyoxymethylenes.<br />

The <strong>Ultraform</strong> ® family encompasses<br />

engineering plastics with different characteristics<br />

suitable for use in complex and highly durable<br />

components. <strong>Ultraform</strong> ® meets the requirements<br />

made of a technical material especially well. It<br />

combines high stiffness and strength with outstanding<br />

resilience, favorable sliding friction behavior<br />

and excellent dimensional stability, even<br />

under the effect of mechanical forces, in contact<br />

with numerous chemicals, fuels and other media<br />

as well as at elevated temperatures.

Structure<br />

Nomenclature<br />

Structure<br />

The name of <strong>Ultraform</strong> ® commercial products generally<br />

follows the scheme below:<br />

<strong>Ultraform</strong> ® Technical ID Suffixes Color<br />

Technical ID<br />

Letters for identifying the melt flow rate<br />

The melt flow rate corresponds to the position of the<br />

letters in the alphabet: The later the letter appears in<br />

the alphabet, the higher the melt flow rate. Usually one<br />

of the letters E, H, N, S, W or Z is used. The following<br />

rule applies:<br />

E lowest flow rate, lowest MVR value<br />

Z Highest flow rate, highest MVR value<br />

The technical ID is made up of a series of letters and<br />

numbers which give hints about the melt flow rate, the<br />

type of reinforcing agents, fillers, modifiers or additives<br />

used, their content in the material and special features<br />

if applicable. The following classification scheme is<br />

found with most products:<br />

N 2 3 2 0 0 0 3 5<br />

W 2 3 2 0 0 0 3<br />

N 2 2 0 0 G 5 3<br />

agent, filler, modifier or additive used<br />

E Impact-modified with rubber<br />

G Glass fibers<br />

K Chalk<br />

l Conductive carbon black<br />

M Mineral<br />

P Special lubricant<br />

U UV-stabilized<br />

Z Impact-modified with thermoplastic polyurethane<br />

N 2 6 5 0 Z 6<br />

Numbers for characterizing<br />

the polymer composition<br />

Letter for identifying the flowability<br />

Letter for identifying the type of reinforcing<br />

agent / filler, modifier or additive<br />

used (otherwise 0 or no character )<br />

Further<br />

number(s) for<br />

identifying<br />

additional<br />

features (or no<br />

character(s))<br />

Characteristic numbers for describing the content<br />

of reinforcing agents, fillers or modifiers<br />

The numbers 2, 4, 5, 6 and 9 are usually found. The<br />

greater the number, the higher the content. The following<br />

rule applies:<br />

2 approx. 10% by mass<br />

4 approx. 20% by mass<br />

5 approx. 25% by mass<br />

6 approx. 30% by mass<br />

9 approx. 45% by mass<br />

Numeral for identifying the content of<br />

reinforcing agent / filler or modifier (otherwise<br />

0 or no character)


Nomenclature<br />

Suffixes<br />

25<br />

Suffixes<br />

Suffixes are optionally used in order to indicate specific<br />

processing or application-related properties. They are<br />

frequently acronyms whose letters are derived from the<br />

English term.<br />

Examples of suffixes:<br />

Aqua ® Meets specific regulatory requirements for<br />

drinking water applications<br />

FC Food Contact; meets specific regulatory<br />

requirements for applications in contact with<br />

food<br />

LEV Low Emission Version; low in odors<br />

PRO Profile Covered Raw Materials Only; meets<br />

specific regulatory requirements and needs<br />

for medical applications<br />

Color<br />

The color is generally made up of a color name and a<br />

color number.<br />

Examples of colors:<br />

Uncolored<br />

Black 00120<br />

Black 00140 (in the case of products that are modified<br />

with thermoplastic polyurethane)<br />

Black 00160 (in the case of products that are modified<br />

with rubber)
