Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal, or, polyoxymethylene, or, polyacetal, is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic renowned for its exceptional mechanical properties and versatility. Structurally, POM is a polymer composed of repeating oxymethylene (-CH2O-) units, which confer high crystallinity and a dense, stable molecular structure. This results in POM's outstanding characteristics, including high tensile strength, rigidity, low coefficient of friction, excellent dimensional stability, and resistance to wear and abrasion.
