Globalpu News: Ascend Performance Materials will participate in InterPlas Thailand 2022, the largest rubber and plastics industry event in Southeast Asia for the first time this year. Thailand International Plastics and Rubber Machinery Exhibition, showcasing a rich product portfolio and an expanded global business footprint.
Among the many material solutions, Ascend will highlight Starflam® flame retardant polyamide series, Vydyne® Vydyne® The HT and XHT high temperature polyamide series, and AVS technology tailored for vibration damping applications, are ideal for harsh applications such as automotive powertrains and auxiliary systems.
Starflam® The full product line of flame retardant polyamide has more than 120 UL yellow card certifications, which can meet the diverse flame retardant requirements from UL94-HB to 5VA, have excellent electrical insulation properties and mechanical properties, and ensure material safety requirements, covering halogen-free and Halogenated, unreinforced and glass filled PA66, PA6 and PA66,6 various grades.
Vydyne Vydyne® XHT combines unique polymer chemistry with proprietary thermal stabilization technology to On the basis of the HT series, it further breaks through the limit of long-term high temperature resistance of polyamide, the working temperature range can reach 170-230 °C, and it can still maintain excellent processability, chemical resistance and mechanical resistance after long-term exposure to high temperatures up to 230 °C The comprehensive performance, such as the characteristics, gives greater design flexibility and efficiency to the application around the engine compartment.
Newly developed Vydyne® for optimized vibration reduction of new energy vehicles The AVS product line and comprehensive CAE support help automakers improve NVH performance, reduce noise and vibration, and improve user driving comfort while ensuring safety through customized design solutions of "plastic instead of steel".
"These products and technologies address key challenges faced by automakers and provide design engineers with greater flexibility and reduced complexity," said Dr. Improve vehicle reliability with more optimized solutions and more competitive costs."
Ascend has continued to invest resources to expand production capacity, develop new products, and improve technical support and service capabilities in recent years. In Asia, through the acquisition and upgrading of the Suzhou production base, it has successfully realized the localized production of multi-specification engineering plastics and the development of new specifications. Recently, the acquisition in India has been completed, and the production base in Chennai, India has been officially put into operation. At the same time, it announced a new production base in Lianyungang in January this year, and the Asia-Pacific Innovation Center was officially put into operation at the end of April, which can quickly respond to market demands and develop and produce product solutions suitable for the Asian market.
Dr. Wu Xianliang said: "Ascend is constantly developing to meet the needs of global customers. Southeast Asia is an important strategic area for our business development. We will continue to innovate to create more durable material solutions and bring more value to the market and customers. ."
