  2. Melting points of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_points_of_the...

    The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.

  3. Polyvinylidene fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinylidene_fluoride

    Compared to other fluoropolymers, it has an easier melt process because of its relatively low melting point of around 177 °C. Processed materials are typically in the non-piezoelectric alpha phase. The material must either be stretched or annealed to obtain the piezoelectric beta phase.

  4. Polyvinyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_alcohol

    Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH, PVA, or PVAl) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer.It has the idealized formula [CH 2 CH(OH)] n.It is used in papermaking, textile warp sizing, as a thickener and emulsion stabilizer in polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) adhesive formulations, in a variety of coatings, and 3D printing.

  5. Polymer - Wikipedia

    Dipole bonding is not as strong as hydrogen bonding, so a polyester's melting point and strength are lower than Kevlar's , but polyesters have greater flexibility. Polymers with non-polar units such as polyethylene interact only through weak Van der Waals forces. As a result, they typically have lower melting temperatures than other polymers.

  6. Polypropylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene

    The melting point of α-crystalline regions is given as 185 [15] [16] to 220 °C, [15] [17] the density as 0.936 to 0.946 g·cm −3. [ 18 ] [ 19 ] The β-modification is in comparison somewhat less ordered, as a result of which it forms faster [ 20 ] [ 21 ] and has a lower melting point of 170 to 200 °C.

  7. Polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene

    The melting point for average commercial low-density polyethylene is typically 105 to 115 °C (221 to 239 °F). These temperatures vary strongly with the type of polyethylene, but the theoretical upper limit of melting of polyethylene is reported to be 144 to 146 °C (291 to 295 °F). Combustion typically occurs above 349 °C (660 °F).

  8. Polyacrylonitrile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyacrylonitrile

    Polymers containing amidoxime groups can be used for the treatment of metals because of the polymers’ complex-forming capabilities with metal ions. [18] PAN has properties involving low density, thermal stability, high strength and modulus of elasticity. These unique properties have made PAN an essential polymer in high tech.

  9. Melting point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_point

    The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.
