MelaminebyDSM™ for tough, decorative tableware
Thanks to melamine, molding powders can be made that produce light weight,
heat resistant tableware and picnic-ware, that combine flexibility and design
freedom with safety and toughness. It is an inexpensive, hygienic and safe
material that will not break or transfer heat. Melamine dinnerware can be
produced in a range of colors and decorative printed finishes, which is why it
is so popular with children. And it is dishwasher-proof, which is why it is so
popular with grown-ups.
Flame retardancy is another important quality for fire safety in public areas
like schools and hospitals.
Melamine molding powders are available in specially formulated grades,
including types with excellent thermal and insulating properties suitable for
demanding electrical applications.
Typical applications for melamine based molding powders include:
- Tableware and picnic-ware
- Children's dinnerware
-
Electrical equipment
- Handles for pans and other utensils
