Comparative Analysis of POM with Other Plastics:

Some of the key advantages and limitations of POM compared to other plastics are highlighted below:

POM vs Nylon


POM vs Polycarbonate

  • POM has much higher strength, hardness and stiffness than polycarbonate
  • PC offers very high impact resistance compared to brittle
  • POMPolycarbonate has superior temperature resistance up to 140°C vs 90°C for POM
  • POM has lower moisture absorption and better dimensional stability
  • PC has higher ductility and fracture toughness compared to POM


POM vs Polyimide

  • Polyimide can withstand much higher temperatures than POM
  • It has excellent strength retention at high temperatures vs POM
  • POM offers better impact strength and machinability
  • Polyimide has superior wear resistance and chemical resistance
  • POM has lower density and moisture absorption compared to polyimide
