The information presented on this plastic material data sheet was acquired by IDES from various sources, including the manufacturer of the resin and recognized testing agencies. In some cases, plastic material updates have been integrated directly into the IDES Plastics Database by the resin manufacturer utilizing the IDES Data Maintenance Tool. IDES makes substantial efforts to assure the accuracy of this plastics data. However, IDES assumes no responsibility for the data values and urges that upon final plastic material selection, data points are validated with the resin manufacturer.
