RadiciGroup to exhibit Radilon specialties at MSV'13

After showcasing at Feiplastic, the International Plastic Trade Fair held in São Paulo, Brazil, RadiciGroup Plastics is introducing its specialties to the Czech market. At MSV 2013 the focus is on two types of high-tech, high-performance thermoplastic resins already presented in São Paulo:

Speciality polymer range for metal and thermoset material replacement - Radilon S URV (high fill, high fluidity PA6 engineering plastics) - Radilon A RV500RW (glass-fibre-filled PA6,6 engineering plastics, which RadiciGroup has used in developing several exciting applications for the automotive and consumer goods sectors in collaboration with its partners).

High-heat resistant Radilon A HHR (specialities developed for applications requiring materials with exceptional heat resistance to hot-air ageing at temperatures of up to 210°C).

RADILON A RV500RW

RADILON A RV500RW products are glass-fibre-filled PA6, 6 engineering plastics with mechanical characteristics up to 20% better than those of standard materials with similar amounts of fill.

Compared to traditional PA6, 6 resins, these RADILON products ensure greater mechanical resistance and strain at break, greater resistance and strain at break in the presence of weld lines, and greater impact strength in both wet and dry conditions.

Furthermore, RadiciGroup Plastics is about to introduce PA6 and PA6,6 long-fibre polymers, ideal for critical applications where the required values of impact, creep and fatigue resistance are so high that they cannot be achieved with traditional engineering plastics.

Main applications

RADILON S URV: structural parts requiring high stiffness and mechanical resistance, such as structural components for textile machinery. Also ideal for office chair components, where performance and aesthetic appearance are required.

RADILON A RV500RW: engine mounts, reaction brackets and pump housings.

RADILON A HHR (HIGH HEAT RESISTANT)

PA6,6 engineering plastics with exceptional heat resistance to hot-air ageing are high-performance products for applications at continuous operating temperatures of up to 210°C.

Main applications

Intercooler tanks, turbo manifolds, resonators, electric motor parts and air-intake manifolds for operation at temperatures greater than 180°C.
