List of polymers tested and identifying features.

To assess the results of the chemical resistance
testing, an ESCR criteria was developed that took
into consideration a visual observation as well
as the mechanical data.
The data in these tables clearly
shows that the Trilliant HC8900 and Edgetek ET8900
series outperformed the competitive materials
across all different disinfectant/cleaner types.
While
the method used in this study is useful for providing comparative data, it should be noted that the testing is
conducted under a single strain condition with the disinfectant applied in a manner intended to accelerate ESC
behavior; the strain and exposure conditions based on actual use scenarios should always be tested to confirm
the anticipated performance in the field.

PREPERM™ Solutions for 5G
The increased demand for data capacity and low
latency and the growing volume of connected
devices require more base stations and higher
frequencies.
The dielectric measurement data up to 220 GHz
indicates that the dielectric properties of PREPERM
thermoplastics are stable and not dependent on
the frequency.
