Scope

This part of EN ISO 9988 establishes a system of designation for polyoxymethylene (POM) thermoplastic materials, which may be used as the basis for specifications.Polyoxymethylene materials are thermoplastic materials composed principally of long-chain synthetichomopolymers and copolymers of formaldehyde. The repeating unit in the molecular chain is – CH2O – as an integral part of the main polymer chain resulting from polymerization of formaldehyde.The types of polyoxymethylene plastic are differentiated from each other by a classification system based on appropriate levels of the following designatory properties:a) melt mass-flow rate or melt volume-flow r
