American Micro Industries supplies industry with phenolic and other electrical insulators via its Web site or direct sale.
CHAMBERSBURG, PA (PRWEB) June 17, 2004 -- For the year 2000, North American demand for phenolic materials was expected to be 4 billion pounds. Unbeknownst to them, the typical consumer will handle phenolic-based materials many times in any given day. Phenolic resin is one of the most adaptive products in the marketplace, used by hundreds of industries and is found in appliances, homes, public restrooms, automobiles and even spaceships.
To address driver and passenger safety concerns, phenolic resin is extensively used in the manufacturing of vehicle panels and seats. The automotive and mass transit industries choose phenolic polymer for its high heat resistance; and excellent flame, smoke and toxicity properties. Phenolic is also used in automotive electrical and mechanical parts, such as drive pulleys, brake blocks and pads, brake linings, clutch facings, fuel rails, intake manifolds and water pump housings.
The wood and building industries have used phenolic for years in the manufacturing of particleboard, plywood, hardboard and oriented strandboard, using phenolic resins as the binder. Interestingly, phenolic is used in many of the privacy dividers found in public restrooms, as well as for kitchen countertops and vertical panel applications.
The aerospace, defense and electrical industries are heavily reliant on phenolic resins. Phenolic advantages include high heat resistance, excellent dimensional stability, as well as having a United Laboratories rating of UL94-V0, meaning it is fireproof, and will not burn. Applications within these industries include commutators, switches, wiring devices, household appliances, business equipment and wiring devices. Phenolic retains its strength at high temperatures, its creep resistance under load, as well as possesses chemical and corrosive resistance. Phenolic is widely incorporated in appliances because of its excellent electrical resistance and dimensional/thermal stability.
