 HOZOLE is a linear high-performance polymer manufactured by HOS-Technik using a polybenzimidazole (PBI) base:
Properties:
HOZOLE is a thermoplastic polymer powder with a complete, aromatic molecule.
Products made from HOZOLE are non-flammable and demonstrate high strength properties, chemical resistance and temperature stability, as well as having low wear and friction coefficients. The temperature resistance of HOZOLE is above 310°C (590°F). Temperatures of 500°C (930°F) are also possible for short periods.
