New Specification for Finished Parts Made from Co-Polyimide Resin
1. Scope
1.1 This specification is intended to be a means of calling out finished plastic parts ready for industrial or consumer use.
1.2 This specification covers finished parts and shapes from which parts are machined, made from a semi-crystalline polyimide (PI).
1.3 This specification covers parts made from semi-crystalline polyimide, which is a thermosetting material that shows no softening or melting by DMA (D4065) at or below 260°C (500°F).
1.4 Since polyimide (PI) is a thermoset resin, no provisions are included for recycled products.
