G-TEX TM nonwoven mats are made with PP, PA, PEI and PPS fibers. The dry mats can be direct formed into parts by compression molding or used as pre-consolidated sheets. G-TEX TM nonwoven mats are used today in automotive and aerospace applications.

Texicryl® emulsion used to enhance the workability and technical performance of products being supplied into the building and decoration market.A diverse range of thickeners and binders for the Artist Colors market. It can also be used in water-based styrene acrylic emulsion polymers and solid resins specifically developed for graphic art applications, as a rheology modifiers for Hand Cleanser applications.With over 60 years’ experience, our range of PVA / acrylic binders and inverse emulsion thickeners deliver high performance in textile and furnishing products.

Our glass fiber reinforcements are 10 or 16 microns in diameter and milled to lengths ranging from 120 to 470 microns. They are used in composites to increase mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural and impact strength. They are also used to increase dimensional stability and minimize distortion at elevated temperatures. Milled glass fibers are compatible with all thermoset and thermoplastics resins. Surface treatments are available that may enhance performance. Microglass milled fibers are E-glass filaments hammer milled to various bulk densities. Microglass is used as a filler/reinforcement in composites to increase mechanical properties (tensile, flexural and impact), improve dimensional stability and minimize distortion at elevated temperatures.

ROHACELL® structural foam has been offering the aerospace and automotive industries, medical technology, and other markets boundless possibilities for lightweight construction of parts or products made from high-performance composites. In such applications ROHACELL® foam core, which is based on polymethacrylimide (PMI), is used as a core between, for example, CFRP facings or as a mandrel.

PS created the Astroquartz® line of fabrics in 1964 in support of the NASA Gemini and Apollo missions. Since its creation, Astroquartz® has established itself as the recognized leader in pure (99.9% +) silica grade fabrics. The electrical, thermal, and strength properties of Astroquartz® are unparalleled. Today Astroquartz® can be found in many groundbreaking applications including to assist commercial aviation connectivity and military aircraft communications, heat shields for orbital and martian space explorers, and as thermal protection for sensors and other temperature-sensitive parts. All of our Astroquartz® fabrics are certifiable to AMS 3846. JPS is the world leader for quartz fabric production for composite applications. Our Astroquartz® fabrics established the use of high purity silica in fabric form, a role we are very proud of and a legacy we are excited to continue.

SymaLITE is the name given to its special lightweight composites. These Low Weight Reinforced Thermoplastics (LWRT) make up a product group of special lightweight plastic composites with low thermal expansion and excellent mechanical and physical properties. The mixed glass and polymer fiber fleeces produced in special textile processes are supplied as rolls and boards and can be cost-efficient further-converted into three-dimensional components by low-pressure molding. The ultra-light, freely shapeable SymaLITE thermoplastic is noise-absorbent and can be faced directly with functional and decorative cover layers without adhesives having to be used. This eliminates an entire production step.

ZERO® is a patented non-woven fabric with a relatively small percentage of binder material (less than 3%). The binder is applied to only one side of the fabric resulting in virtually no crimp in the reinforcement fibers. ZERO® is highly efficient and very affordable.

Evonik is the inventor of AEROSIL® fumed silica, which is a synthetic fumed silica that is produced by flame hydrolysis. For over 70 years AEROSIL® has proven to enhance performance in many markets and applications. Today Evonik's AEROSIL® portfolio covers a broad range of surface areas, as well as very different surface chemistries. Also, AEROSIL® does not get tired in finding new markets, applications and effects. AEROSIL® is invented to improve.

BindEX enhances properties of polymer compounds thus enabling their increased adoption in automotive, wire & cable, wood plastics composites, flexible packaging, white goods and recycling industries.

EcoPaXX® is a high-performance aliphatic, biobased polyamide that uniquely balances the benefits of typical short and long chain polyamides, such as low moisture uptake and high mechanical performance. It has wide applicability and is especially popular as a PA66 performance booster since it can be processed in the same tools. 30% lower moisture uptake than PA66 with higher mechanical performance Excellent surface finish 72% bio-based

Mavcoat® Mold Release brand consists of innovative chemical technologies.
