Brands in Plastics

Due to its excellent thermal and mechanical properties, this semi-crystalline material belongs to the polymer group of high-performance plastics (HPM).

Xytron PPS is a high-performance plastics compound based on linear polyphenylene sulfide that contributes to three key strengths: heat aging performance up to 240 °C; chemical resistance at high temperature; and dimensional stability.  This polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) offers excellent chemical resistance, dimensional stability and is intrinsically flame retardant because of its electrical properties. Xytron PPS offers high stiffness up to a glass transition temperature of 90°C, with a continuous use temperature between 240-260°C. This family of PPS grades is well suited for a broad range of automotive, electronics and electrical, water management and specialized industrial applications. 

Stanyl is a high-performance aliphatic polyamide with a melting temperature of 295°C that due to its high crystallinity and fast crystallization speeds entails three key strengths: Excellent high-temperature mechanical performance Excellent wear and friction properties Superior flow

The SILRES® brand comprises a wide range of silicones for coatings, paints and construction applications. The portfolio has been developed and continuously improved since the 1950's when the first silicone resins for building protection originated in WACKER laboratories. It features not only time-tested and innovative products, but also tailored solutions for a host of applications, climates and substrates. And it is supported by a range of extensive services available from our technical centers worldwide which provide further customization and customer-specific options.

Barimite grades are produced from high-quality, natural, off-white barium sulfate ore. Cimbar’s broad range of Barimite products offer a clean, high purity, high specific gravity, low solubility and chemically inert filler for your formulations. Barimite products are a cost effective grades that are ideal for applications that do not require high brightness. These properties have made Barimite products the industry standard for consistent quality and performance in a wide range of end-use applications.

WARADUR® montan waxes are used as high performance additives in the plastics industry, due to their unique properties and versatility. Montan wax derivatives serve for example as combined external and internal lubricants, dispersing agents and surface improvers in many types of plastics and processing methods. They are therefore particularly valued for technically challenging tasks in the engineering plastics field where high demands are placed on functionality, optical appearance and cycle time reduction. WARADUR® montan waxes in addition also provide excellent lubricating and mold release properties for thermosets.

Bioblend grades are biopolymer compounds significantly blended with natural mineral and organic fillers. All grades can  be filled with any natural fiber to create a natural look.

Polyacetals / POM (homo- and co-polymers)

Polybutylene terephthalate is a semi-crystalline material from the polyester family of plastics and, due to its good thermal and mechanical properties, is counted among the polymer group of engineering plastics. It has a high surface hardness and good sliding and wear behavior.

K-KAT® catalysts are alternatives (or substitutes) to tin and mercury catalysts for isocyanate, blocked isocyanate and moisture cure silane systems. K-KAT catalysts are effective for crosslinking silane terminated polymers while adding improved adhesion.
