Stanyl®

Stanyl® is the first high-temperature polyamide and the only aliphatic polyamide in its class. Thirty years ago it defined this class of materials and today it is still the most widely used polymer basis. The symmetry of the 46 structure ensures that the polymers fit in the crystal in multiple ways, thereby giving rise to high crystallization speeds and high crystallinity. This combination makes the material ideal for high-temperature applications due to excellent mechanics as well as wear and friction behavior, where the flow and the flow-mechanics balance are one of a kind.

Key Benefits

  • Excellent high-temperature mechanical performance

  • Excellent wear and friction properties

  • Superior flow

ForTii®, ForTii®Ace

ForTii® is a platform of high performance semi-aromatic polyamides (PPA) based on the unique “C4” diamine technology that enables best-in-class mechanical properties due to the optimized crystallization morphology.

In addition, ForTii® offers a unique balance of properties, including excellent dimensional stability, compatibility with lead free reflow soldering, and the highest stiffness and mechanical strength at extreme temperatures. The ForTii® platform offers material solutions in two product groups:

ForTii® is a PPA with high mechanical properties and good chemical resistance. The ForTii® grades have a melting temperature of 325°C and a glass transition temperature of 125°C.

ForTii® Ace is a high melting PPA with extreme mechanical properties and high chemical resistance. ForTii® Ace grades have a melting temperature in the range of 320°C to 345°C and a glass transition temperature ranging from 135°C to 160°C. ForTii® Ace has the highest aromatic content (>50wt%) of all PPAs.

Key Benefits

  • Very high peak temperature resistance (HDT > 300°C)

  • Halogen free UL94 V-0 possible down to 0.2mm and CTI beyond 800°C

  • High mechanical properties below and above Tg 

  • Superior chemical resistance

EcoPaXX®

EcoPaXX® (PA410) is Envalior’s most established biobased engineering plastic. It combines Envalior’s propriety C4 technology with the power of nature’s C10 building block derived from castor plants, which do not compete with the food chain.

 

The combination of the short C4 block and the long C10 block gives EcoPaXX® high mechanical properties of typical short chain polyamides, but combines these with lower moisture uptake and higher chemical resistance more typical of long chain polyamides.

 

EcoPaXX® can easily be processed in PA66 tools while resulting in better surface quality. This makes it an ideal candidate for when performance, aesthetics and sustainability come together.

Key Benefits

  • 30% lower moisture uptake than PA66 with higher mechanical performance

  • Excellent surface finish

  • 72% bio-based resin
