Typical Applications for ULTEM 1110

Typical Properties

Important Notes on Typical Data:

• Values listed are typical and sourced from SABIC official data sheets. They do not constitute binding product specification.

• Batch-to-batch deviations may exist. For critical applications, validate performance with batch-specific COA certificate.

• Final performance depends on processing conditions, mold design, and part geometry.

• SABIC official TDS shall serve as definitive technical reference. Request the latest official TDS from our sales team.

Processing Guidelines

Critical Processing Warnings:

• Drying: ULTEM 1110 is hygroscopic and must be dried to <0.02% moisture before processing. Dry at 150°C for 4-6 hours.

• Melt Temperature: Recommended melt temperature range is 350-400°C. Avoid excessive residence times to prevent thermal degradation.

• Enhanced Flow: This grade offers improved flow characteristics for easier processing and better mold filling of complex parts.

• Mold Temperature: Higher mold temperatures (135-165°C) improve flow and reduce residual stress.

• Gate Design: Use large gates and runners to minimize flow resistance and reduce molded-in stress.

• Regrind: Regrind can be used up to 20-25% with virgin material, provided it is clean and properly dried.

FAQ

Q1: What is ULTEM 1110 and what is it used for?
A: ULTEM 1110 is an enhanced flow, unreinforced polyetherimide (PEI) resin manufactured by SABIC. It combines high heat resistance (Tg 217°C), inherent flame retardancy (UL94 V-0 & 5VA), and improved flow for easier processing. It is widely used in electrical/electronic components, home appliances, automotive under-hood applications, consumer goods, and industrial components.

Q2: What is the difference between ULTEM 1000 and ULTEM 1110?
A: ULTEM 1110 offers enhanced flow compared to ULTEM 1000 (MFR 16 vs 9.0 g/10min), making it easier to process and fill complex molds. It also has slightly higher density (1.36 vs 1.27 g/cm³). Both grades share similar heat resistance, flame retardancy, and mechanical properties.

Q3: What is the glass transition temperature of ULTEM 1110?
A: The glass transition temperature (Tg) is 217°C.

Q4: What is the density of ULTEM 1110?
A: The density is 1.36 g/cm³.

Q5: Is ULTEM 1110 flame retardant?
A: Yes. ULTEM 1110 is inherently flame retardant with UL94 V-0 (0.75mm) and 5VA (3.0mm) ratings.

Q6: What processing methods can be used for ULTEM 1110?
A: ULTEM 1110 is primarily processed by injection molding.

Q7: What is the MFR of ULTEM 1110?
A: The Melt Flow Rate is 16 g/10min at 337°C, 6.6kg.

Q8: Is ULTEM 1110 RoHS compliant?
A: Yes. ULTEM 1110 complies with RoHS and is ECO conforming.

Q9: Does ULTEM 1110 have good chemical resistance?
A: Yes. ULTEM 1110 offers good chemical resistance for an amorphous material, resisting automotive fluids, aircraft fluids, alcohols, acids, and weak aqueous solutions.
