Direct Formed Components
Meldin 7000 series materials have excellent processability. Unlike PBI, ceramics, and other high temperature materials, Meldin 7000 series materials can be powder compacted, also known as direct formed, into complex part geometries. In many cases, a part that was previously machined can be direct formed instead.
| 
Injection Molded Components
Meldin HT thermoplastic materials are typically used in applications where service conditions exceed the limits of conventional materials.
Injection molded Meldin HT parts are made by the economic injection molding process, and complex part shapes can be incorporated into the injection mold tooling.
| 
Bearings and Bushings
Bearings and bushings made in Meldin 7000 series and Meldin HT materials provide longer life and reduced maintenance costs.
Meldin materials are ideally suited for highly demanding applications in the aerospace, agricultural equipment, industrial machinery, and medical/dental tool markets.
|
Piston and Sealing Rings
Piston and sealing rings made in Meldin materials offer excellent wear life and chemical compatibility versus traditional cast iron solutions.
The Meldin materials' excellent flexural, wear, frictional, and chemical properties make them ideal piston ring candidates for demanding applications such as compressors, vehicle transmissions and axles, hydraulic actuators, and shock absorbers.
| 
Rotary Vanes
Rotary vanes made in Meldin materials have excellent mechanical, frictional, temperature, and chemical properties that make them ideal material choices for demanding and even dry running applications.
Meldin rotary vanes offer superior chemical compatibility and durability over their phenolic and carbon graphite counterparts. Applications where Meldin vanes provide great value include surgical and dental tools that require long life and guaranteed torque performance.
| 
Thrust Washers
Thrust washers made in Meldin materials offer high wear resistance and excellent self-lubrication characteristics for demanding and dry-running applications.
The Meldin materials' excellent load bearing and self-lubricating properties make them ideal thrust washer candidates for demanding applications such as transmissions, gearboxes, transfer cases, compressors, turbomachinery, and pumps.

Semicon and PV Equipment Components
Meldin 7000 series materials are ideal for semicon equipment chamber applications due to their high purity, low outgassing, superior plasma etch resistance, and other properties.
Meldin 7001, the unfilled polyimide grade, is widely used in semicon equipment such as CVD, PVD, sputtering, and other equipment. Typical Meldin 7001 components include clamp rings, coil keepers, focus rings, lift pins, lift pin holders, chamber gaskets, glass guides, and other components.
