Zytel

For manufacturers across a number of industries, Zytel® HTN high-performance polyamide resin is the choice for reducing weight, improving strength, enhancing durability, increasing thermal performance, and simplifying processing. The Zytel® family of products is available in a variety of grades that sustain high strength and stiffness over a wide range of temperatures, chemicals, and moisture exposure. Zytel® HTN is widely used to replace metal parts that must withstand high temperature tolerances (such as engine cooling, handheld devices, and non-halogenated connectors), while reducing cost and weight. In both PPA grades and structural grades, Zytel® HTN solutions enhance performance in a diverse array of applications.

BETAMATE Structural Adhesives

BETAMATE® structural adhesives deliver advanced solutions for bonding similar and dissimilar substrates, closures, and body structures, enabling improved load carrying capabilities, vehicle stiffness, durability, design flexibility, and weight reduction.As an example of what BETAMATE® can help you achieve, this is what happens when a mid-size vehicle with 50 meters of BETAMATE® is operated for one year: 10 kg primary mass reduction; 17 kg total weight savings with mass decompounding; 0.62 percent improvement in fuel efficiency; 32.6 kg carbon dioxide reduction BETAMATE® structural adhesives offer high-performance adhesion to automotive substrates such as steel, aluminum, magnesium, and composites. It replaces welds and mechanical fasteners, reducing fatigue and failure commonly encountered with traditional processes, and substantially increasing manufacturing efficiencies.

Zytel® LCPA

Zytel® LCPA flexible polymer materials provide an innovative and growing portfolio of long-chain polyamides with excellent thermal, chemical, and hydrolysis resistance. The various grades of Zytel® LCPA are designed to meet specific performance needs, including everything from high temperature resistance and stiffness to lower fuel and gas permeability. This important product family continues to expand. With science-driven innovation, DuPont has chemically modified PA610 and PA612 products, adding two new polymer series to the Zytel® LCPA portfolio. Zytel® RSLC 4000 and Zytel® LC 7000 offer a step change improvement over existing grades, both products meet customer needs for salt resistance and increased flexibility. The expanded portfolio provides increased resistance to chemicals and cracking, excellent yield and stiffness balance, and blow-molding compatibility. The Zytel® LCPA line also includes one of the industry and rsquo's widest arrays of innovative, renewably sourced (RS) materials. The RSLC grades are partially or entirely derived from non-food biomass. They provide performance properties that enable companies to reduce the use of fossil fuels in polymer feedstock, even in demanding applications.

THIXON

THIXON® bonding agents can be custom-formulated for the specific bonding requirements of various substrates and conditions. We also offer a full line of low-VOC and HAP-compliant systems to help reduce emissions. THIXON® performs well in extremely severe environments and is suited for many automotive applications.

Multiflex

MULTIFLEX® thermoplastic elastomers from DuPont are excellent replacements for thermoset rubber in highly demanding automotive applications. They help reduce costs through streamlined processing and combine design freedom with recyclability. From interior features such as cup holders and mat bins to airbag covers and exterior weather seals, MULTIFLEX® offers the industry exceptionally high performance in a wide range of applications. In addition to exceptional colorability and resistance to color degradation, it is resistant to alcohols, acids, aqueous solutions, bases, and detergents. Plus, it has high thermal and electrical properties.
