Text version of the page

Market developments Engineering plastics are subject to increasingly stringent requirements. The trend is toward more compact designs, smaller components that are subject to greater stresses such as higher temperatures and operating speeds. Many industries, particularly those in the automotive and electrical & electronic sectors, require components that are lighter, stronger, more compact, and more resistant to wear. Parts made from plastic compounds engineered with Twaron and Technora para-aramid short-cut fibers easily meet these specifications. Adding these to the mix will significantly enhance the endurance of your plastic products and reduce maintenance. Key benefits when using our aramid • High wear resistance, low abrasiveness • Easy to dose • Ability to engineer precisely the level of wear resistance required • Reduction of vibration and sound dampening Engineering wear resistance in plastics
