Mitsui AURUM® JCL3030 Polyimide, Carbon Fiber Filled

Subcategory: Polyimide; Thermoplastic; Polymer

Material Notes:
AURUM JCL3030 is a high-performance polyimide for precision injection molded components and extruded products. A member of the AURUM family of advanced engineering resins, carbon fiber reinforced AURUM JCL3030 offers a unique balance of mechanical, thermal, and tribological properties for outstanding performance in demanding automotive, business machinery, industrial equipment, aerospace, and semiconductor equipment applications. AURUM components offer excellent mechanical strength and toughness, dimensional stability, low outgassing, and exceptional radiation resistance. In addition, AURUM exhibits outstanding resistance to hydraulic, automotive, and many industrial fluids and solvents, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, creep resistance, and flame retardancy. AURUM JCL3030 withstands high PV levels and provides a low wear factor and low friction surface over a broad temperature range in both dry and lubricated environments.

Applications: AURUM JCL3030 components are excellent replacements for metals, ceramics, and other plastics. High performance AURUM parts include: thrust washers and oil seal rings for automotive and off road vehicle transmissions, thermal insulators and stripper fingers for high-speed copiers, jet engine components, check valve balls, spline couplings, heat-resistant gears, vanes, wear strips, and valve seats. Other AURUM applications include carriers for aluminum hard disks and silicon wafers, journal bearings, and bearing retainers.
