Crastin® SK643FR NC010
Chemical Family: Polyesters
Polymer Name: Polybutylene Terephthalate Alloy (PBT Alloy)
Common features of Crastin® thermoplastic polyester resin include mechanical and physical properties such as stiffness and toughness, heat resistance, friction and wear resistance, excellent surface finishes and good colourability. Crastin® thermoplastic polyester resin has excellent electrical insulation characteristics and high arc-resistant grades are available. Many flame retardant grades have UL recognition (class V-0). Crastin® thermoplastic polyester resin typically has high chemical and heat ageing resistance. The good melt stability of Crastin® thermoplastic polyester resin normally enables the recycling of properly handled production waste. If recycling is not possible, DuPont recommends, as the preferred option, incineration with energy recovery (-24 kJ/g of base polymer) in appropriately equipped installations. For disposal, local regulations have to be observed. Crastin® thermoplastic polyester resin typically is used in demanding applications in the electronics, electrical, automotive, mechanical engineering, chemical, domestic appliances and sporting goods industry. Crastin® SK643FR is a flame retardant, 20% glass reinforced polybutylene terephthalate moulding resin. It is recognized as UL94V-0 at 0.8mm.

An Illuminating Approach to Automotive Lighting
Materials play a critical role in complex vehicle lighting systems, where safety, driving comfort, design and styling converge to illuminate vehicle branding. Empire Electronics is meeting demanding requirements for automotive wire harness components with lamp sockets molded from Zytel® HTN PPA and connectors molded from hydrolysis-resistant Crastin® PBT thermoplastic polyester resin.
Distinctive headlamp bezels in cost-effective Crastin®
Automotive headlamps - a significant opportunity to add personality to vehicle styling - can now be manufactured more cost-effectively through the "Design-Materials-Processing" solution offered by DuPont. The first tier supplier of exterior automotive lighting - Automotive Lighting of Reutlingen (Germany)- has turned to this solution from DuPont for the development of the headlamp bezels of the new-look Audi A4.
Hot Runner Manual for Robust Molding of Semi-crystalline Resins
Maximizing productivity is an important factor in determining part cost. One way to improve productivity is using a hot runner system. The decision when to use a hot runner system is mainly influenced by “yield” as hot runners can add complexity and cost to molds and require additional maintenance. Due to continuous improvement in the hot runner design a robust molding process is possible even with traditionally more thermally sensitive thermoplastic resins.
New Grades of Crastin® for High-Voltage Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicle Connectors
The newly introduced Crastin® PBT polyester resins from DuPont are fully-color-compounded products that meet automotive OEM safety requirements to clearly indicate high-voltage components in orange for use in hybrid, plug-in, and battery (HV, PEV, BEV) electric vehicles.
