High-tech plastics reshaping the future of mobility
LANXESS has unveiled two new technologies for automotive engineering plastics, namely the new hollow profile hybrid technology and XTS2 thermal stabilization
.
The new hybrid technology for hollow profiles is a further development
of the classic plastic/metal hybrid technology in the mass production of vehicles.
In this technology, hollow metal profiles with round or square cross-sections are used in combination with polyamide injection molding instead of sheet metal
.
XTS2 thermal stabilization technology improves the thermal stability of polyamide to 230°C
.
Unlike many other thermal stabilization solutions, the new system does not have a thermal stability gap
between 160°C~230°C.
The material, which will be sold under the name Durethan AKV35XTS2, is ideal for the production of
components such as intake manifolds with integrated intercoolers.
Dr.
Martin Wanders, Director of Global Application Development at LANXESS' Performance Materials division, said: "Our current R&D activities are focused on materials and technologies for lightweight construction, as well as polyamides for heat dissipation and flame retardant and polyesters
for thermally stressed electrical and electronic components.
Another area of focus is polyamides
with high thermal stability.
