The Right Solution for Your Application

You have a technical need – let our Engineered Solutions team guide you! We are ready to assist you in selecting the best material for your application, and can even offer alternative plastic solutions through custom compounding. Regardless of your challenge, we guarantee that our experts will find the highest quality, and most cost-effective solution, whether it is extruded, compression molded, formed, or an injection molded Near Net Shape (NNS). Our full range of ES materials include:

Kyron^® High Performance Compounds Portfolio

The Kyron materials portfolio contains nearly any base resin for stiffness, heat resistance, or dimensional tolerances. Kyron compounds that are based on high temperature resins excel in demanding high heat and chemical environments. Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials - Engineered Solutions uses a broad range of resins for their Kyron products.
 

All Kyron compounds can be custom formulated to meet specific engineering requirement, including strength, stiffness, heat resistance, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. High performance products can be used in demanding high temperature and chemical environments.

KYRON PRODUCT LINE HIGHLIGHTS
 

KyronMAX^® High Strength Structural Compounds

Part of the Kyron product portfolio, KyronMAX bridges the gap between conventional injection moldable filled polymers and expensive lay-up composites. It is a unique combination of a proprietary high pressure molding technology, coupled with a state-of-the-art material technology that produces high strength structural components.

Product Features

• Tensile strength to weight ratio - Higher than steel.
• Weight - Almost 75% lighter than steel and almost 40% lighter than aluminum.
• Higher product performance due to better knit line strength  - Lower filler levels reduce the knit line effect and increase the strength of the molded part.
• Better "practical toughness" due to lower filler loadings  - Lower filler content increases the material's elongation at yield which results in the ability for the part to yield and not fracture.
• Lower filler loadings than traditional thermoplastic compounds  - Lower filler levels promote
• a larger processing window and reduce weight.
