Products & Services The Five Families of DuPont™ Vespel® parts & shapes Vespel® parts, manufactured by DuPont to your design from high performance polyimide resin, provide a unique combination of the physical properties of plastics, metals and ceramics. Vespel® parts offer you design flexibility. Often several parts can be combined into one, parts can be designed to simplify product assembly, or parts can be eliminated. As with metals and ceramics, Vespel® parts can successfully perform in demanding physical environments. Vespel® S Line Within the S line, Vespel® parts and shapes include many products with differing sets of attributes. First in the Vespel® family of products—highly durable polyimides that deliver exceptional wear resistance, insulation, and a low coefficient of friction. » More Vespel® TP Line This innovative thermoplastic material lets you improve functionality in ways you never thought possible. In fact, just like the S line, TP parts have superior wear, chemical and temperature resistance; you can even use them to replace metal and ceramic parts. And also like the S line, various TP products have been created to fit a variety of design specs. » More Vespel® CR Line Luckily, being prepared simply means thinking Vespel® CR when you’re designing for a tough chemical environment. Plus, CR can provide ultra-high purity for semiconductor applications, high-creep resistance for seals, even easy machinability for tight-tolerance parts like ball-valve seats. » More Vespel® CP Line For your designs to be successful, they have to do more than work well. They have to keep on working, year after year, in some pretty harsh user environments. Wear and impact resistance are key. You want polyimide tube clamps that can replace cast aluminum or titanium, slide blocks that are stronger than powder-filled compositions, and wear strips that are self-lubricating. That’s why CP was created. We have an array of fiber-enhanced Composites for a range of unique design needs. » More Vespel® ASB Line The ASB family brings together our broadening product line for increased flexibility in developing a solution to meet your individual performance and value demands. » More Aurum®¹ AURUM®¹ resin is a thermoplastic polyimide that is melt-processable lending itself to fabrication methods such as injection molding and extrusion. Offering continuous use temperatures to 240°C (465°F), AURUM®¹ parts exhibit low outgassing, superior radiation resistance, excellent wear performance and resistance to chemicals. Components made from AURUM®¹ resin are excellent replacements for metals, ceramics, and other plastics. » More AURUM®¹ is a registered trademark of Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.
