Duratron™ is a fully imidized thermoset polyimide. Full imidization and encapsulation of graphite lubricants in wear grades, make Duratron PI stronger than other polyimides and provide excellent wear characteristics. In Tribological Test Laboratories, Duratron 150 and Duratron 400 have consistently achieved much higher limiting pressure,/velocity levels and substantially lower wear rates than any other products. Duratron PI is synthesized differently than competitive polyimides resulting in:

Product Profile:
• Lowest wear rates and highest PV capability
• Lowest wear to mating surfaces
• Higher hardness and 1/3 lower thermal expansion than other polyimides
• better chemical resistance than other polyimides
• Unfilled grade offers high purity levels
• Continuous service temperature maximum 580°F (307°C)
