Innovative solutions for advanced electronic connectors

With DSM you can meet the key technological challenges of today.
•  Increasing pin densities, longer connectors, thinner walls, finer pitches
•  Transition to lead-free soldering, consequences of higher solder temperatures
•  Higher productivity and total cost-down solutions
•  Reduced environmental impact (heavy metals)

Stanyl® is the product that helps you meet these challenges, offering as well solutions to personal concerns regarding:
•  Higher reliability and lower reject rates
•  Enabling innovation for improved connector functionality

Stanyl is the leading material to solve today's challenges;
 •  reducing  waste, scrap and connector failure in connector manufacture and use at all stages
 •  providing system cost advantages compared to other high heat resins
 •  meeting lead-free solder requirements, the industry's material of choice
The features of Stanyl which make it so suitable for electronic connectors are:
 •  high mechanical strength to > 230°C
 •  ductility and weld line strength to reduce breakout
 •  unmatched creep resistance for superior pin retention
 •  HDT > 280°C to withstand lead-free soldering
 •  stable dielectric strength at high frequencies; almost independent of conditions (temperature and humidity) - predictable to work with
 •  predictable and controllable blistering

For an unmatched combination of high flow, durability and reliability
Stanyl 46HF series 

Our value added solutions for major industry concerns

Mechanical strength of the connector

Issues: reliability, functionality, reject rates (for system cost control), breakout, pin retention
Stanyl Solution:  
     - unmatched combination of flow and strength
     - best creep for highest pin retention
     - best toughness and weld-line strength for pin insertion integrity, reduced breakout
     - superior toughness improves integrity of longer connectors
      when brittleness is problem with other resins

Higher pin counts in long thin walled connectorsHigher Pin counts

Issues: Improved weld line strength for lower reject rates, better flow for longer connectors, easy processing material offering design flexibility
Stanyl  Solution:
     - provides flow similar to LCP
     - has highest weld line strength and elongation at break of any insulator resin
     - shot-to-shot process consistency

Finer (low) pitch between pins

Issues: Flow, mechanical strength, weld line strength, higher data transfer speeds needing reliable dielectrics
Stanyl Solution:  
     - toughest resin available with best mechanical strength
     - stable dielectrics at higher frequencies (>1Ghz)
     - highest weld-line strength of connector insulator resins

Lead free solder reflow profiles give higher peak temperatures on the boardLead-free soldering

Issues: connector integrity, reject rates, pin alignment caused by thermal or mechanical deformation, reliability, pin retention after soldering, PPS and semi-aromatic resins borderline or fail at high solder temperatures, blistering exhibited by ALL resins
Stanyl Solution:
     - highest stiffness and strength up to 290ºC resists deformation
     - best maintenance of properties after peak solder temperatures
     - demonstrated solutions and technology to deal with blistering
