DUPONT NEW HIGH TEMPERATURE SOLUTIONS
The DuPont polymer portfolio boasts a range of products for high temperature applications, typically those in the automotive and electrical/ electronic industries. One such recent example is the development of a heat-shield, made of Zytel HTN PPA, to protect the beauty-covers of the new Mercedes’ three-litre 6-cylinder diesel motors from overheating. The material combines high thermal resistance (heat distortion temperature up to 288°C) with low moisture absorption and easy processability. High resistance to brake fluids, lubricants and fuels, as well as to aggressive cleaning liquids, makes Zytel HTN an ideal material for under-the-bonnet applications. A further highlight of the stand will be visitor demonstrations of www.plastics.dupont.com, the interactive portal to the world of DuPont polymers and solutions for customers, moulders, designers and engineers. The DuPont exhibit constitutes the company’s sixth consecutive participation at Plastpol, one of the major plastic events in Central and Eastern Europe, with over 13,000 attendees from some 22 countries. The DuPont Engineering Polymers business manufactures and sells DuPont Crastin PBT and DuPont Rynite PET thermoplastic polyester resins, DuPont Delrin acetal resins, DuPont Hytrel thermoplastic polyester elastomers, DuPont ETPV engineering thermoplastic vulcanizates, DuPont Minlon mineral reinforced nylon resins, DuPont Thermx PCT polycyclohexylene dimethyl terephthalate, DuPont Tynex filaments, DuPont Vespel parts and shapes, DuPont Zenite LCP liquid crystal polymers and DuPont Zytel nylon resins. These products serve global markets in the aerospace, appliance, automotive, consumer, electrical, electronic, industrial, sporting goods and many other diversified industries.
