KyronMAX® S-2230

1 of 15 products in this brand

KyronMAX® S-2230 is a high-performance polymer that combines the excellent strength and toughness of nylon with the added strength and stiffness of ultra high-strength carbon fiber. This injection molding compound is designed to excel in demanding applications where high strength and stiffness are required, making it ideal for components that will be exposed to high stress, high impact and high temperature environments.


Key features:

  • Ultra high strength: carbon fiber reinforcement provides added strength and stiffness
  • Nylon base: provides excellent toughness and impact resistance
  • Injection molding pellets: allows for easy incorporation into your designs and efficient production
  • High temperature resistance: able to maintain stability and strength in high temperature environments.


Benefits:

  • Improved strength and stiffness of components in demanding environments
  • Increased resistance to wear and tear and high temperature
  • Enhanced performance and durability of your products
  • Possibility to design and manufacture complex geometries


Applications:

  • High strength structural components in the automotive, aerospace, and industrial industries
  • Components that require high strength and stiffness, such as gears, bearing components, and bushings
  • Industrial and manufacturing equipment where high strength and stiffness is needed
  • Components that require high strength and stiffness in harsh environments, such as those exposed to high temperature and stress.


KyronMAX® S-2230 is a versatile and reliable material that can help improve the performance and longevity of your products. It's only available in injection molding pellets form, it allows for efficient production and the ability to create complex geometries.

Technical Details & Test Data

KyronMAX® S-2230 DMA Stiffness

KyronMAX® S-2230 - Kyronmax® S-2230 Dma Stiffness

KyronMAX® materials are lightweight and, when molded, parts are 75% lighter than steel and almost 40% lighter than aluminum. By utilizing the lower density of KyronMAX®, customers can simultaneously realize lower costs and lighter parts, while also taking advantage of unmatched tensile and toughness properties.

The better “practical toughness” values are achieved with lower filler loading, which increases the material’s elongation at yield. KyronMAX® molded parts are more likely to yield, rather than fracture under high-stress loads. KyronMAX® stronger fibers and lower filler loadings further elevate molded product performance with significantly better knit line strength compared to other filled polymers.

Aluminum bracket with half FEA analysis (left) and KyronMAX® final molded part (right). The FEA analysis is used to translate a metal part into a lightweight plastic molded part, while matching or exceeding the strength and stiffness of the original metal part.

Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials (MCAM) can take your metal parts and use our proprietary Finite-Element Analysis (FEA) to engineer a high-performance product with KyronMAXⓇ materials. MCAM's unique FEA data offers a solution to accurately predict the mechanical performance of a part in real world applications with key features including mechanical stress, plastic injection molding flow, fatigue, and motion.
