U.S. Plastic Corporation Phenolic Grade XX Sheeting 45478

Phenolic is a hard, dense material made by applying heat and pressure to layers of paper or fabric, impregnated with a synthetic resin. These phenolics are approx half the weight of aluminum and their physical toughness resists abrasion, friction, impact, and material fatigue. Special properties fight off the corrosive action of water and many chemicals, increasing the service life and efficiency of your product parts. The insulating qualities of each grade, such as low dissipation factor and excellent dielectric strength, make them valuable for many precise electrical and electronic applications. The strength-to-weight ratio of these phenolics make them ideally suited for countless product parts. They are high in tensile, compressive, flexural, and impact strength and possess good working characteristics. They machine quickly and easily. Grade XX is copper color, hard, strong paper base laminate with good mechanical properties, high dielectrical strength and resistance to moisture for many usual electrical applications. It has machineability qualities and will withstand up to 266F. Moisture absorption rate 1.3%. Impact strength ft. lb/in. of notch. ASTM D732 XX-.055; CE-1.8; LE 1.5; G-10 12.0
