What is POM?
Polyoxymethylenes, also known as POMs, are notable for their high degree of crystallinity, which gives them: high strength, stiffness and hardness, good chemical and environmental resistance and low moisture absorption.

All of these properties and more are available in Ticona´s line of Celcon®, Hostaform®, and Duracon® acetal copolymer products. Their POMs, classified as acetal copolymers, are very versatile and, as a result, are used in a wide array of applications across many industries. Moreover, POM may be processed by injection molding, extrusion, compression molding, rotational casting or blow molding.
POM unfilled polymer is widely used in many standard applications and to produce rod stock or slab stock, which can be easily machined, for example for prototyping. In some circumstances, the polymer is modified with glass fibers, minerals, conductive fillers, lubricants, pigments and many other additives.
