GEHR POM® C 25GF

GEHR POM® C 25GF has a broad property profile that offers increased strength for many applications compared to non-reinforced GEHR POM-C®. In addition, the reinforcement reduces the coefficient of expansion and simultaneously increases the heat deflection temperature.

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable extinguishing agents; Water, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide (CO2).; Potential combustion products; Carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO). Formation of further decomposition and oxidation products depend upon the fire conditions. Under special fire conditions traces of other toxic substances are possible.; Special protective equipment; Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus. If exposed to combustion fumes bring the victim into fresh air.; Further information; Dispose of fire debris and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations..
