    "Intelligent Molecule" High Temperature Technology
    Improves Automotive Engine Performance
    Solvay (Solvay) recently launched a new high temperature resistant polyamide 66 (PA66) material containing "intelligent molecule" self-reinforcing technology, Technyl REDx
    .
    The innovative material is based on the advantages of Solvay's polymers' high-temperature technology, enabling automakers to overcome the limitations
    of the significant increase in temperature and pressure during engine size reduction.
    The company has developed Technyl® REDx smart molecular materials with patented self-reinforcing technology in polymer chains without affecting the material's structure
    .
    This new technology remains inactive when injection molding automotive parts, and the high flow of the material is comparable to PA66
    .
    During the use of the car, the high temperature activates these smart technologies, creating rapid crosslinks that make the mechanical properties of the product far beyond the initial level
    .

    Technyl?REDx can be processed and formed at an energy-saving mold temperature of 100°C, with simple production process and low
    cost.
    The aging test of more than 3000 hours at 220°C showed that its excellent retention and tensile properties were improved by more than 50% without breakage
    .
