Advantages of PBT Injection Molding
High Strength and Stiffness
PBT has a high tensile strength and modulus of elasticity. This allows it to produce parts that can withstand heavy loads and maintain their shape.
Good Impact Resistance
PBT shows good impact resistance, allowing molded parts to better handle sudden impacts.
Excellent Insulation
PBT, with a dielectric strength of 23 – 24 kV/mm, is a great insulator. It prevents electrical short – circuits, ensuring safe and reliable operation of electrical devices.
High - Temperature Resistance
PBT has a relatively high melting point (around 225 – 235°C) and heat deflection temperature (usually around 150 – 200°C, depending on the load).
Dimensional Stability
During injection molding’s cooling phase, PBT has a low shrinkage rate, yielding parts with accurate dimensions and minimal warping.
