Stanyl combines excellent flow properties during injection molding with a high level of mechanical properties (strength, toughness and stiffness), short cycle times (high productivity) and high temperature resistance (high heat distortion temperature, high melting point). Therefore Stanyl can be used in thin walled application (like connectors).

Flow is even further improved for Stanyl High Flowgrades, matching flow of the best flowing LCPs while maintaining high level of mechanical properties, unique combination! Three commercial flame retardant High Flow grades (UL-94 V-0 ratings) are available for E&E applications (including improved dimensional stability grades) as well as two non flame retardant materials. Visit the product database for Stanyl 46HF designated grades.

Stanyl High Flow grades can replace LCP, resulting in a cost savings of up to 50% due to better mechanical properties (eg weldline strength) good pin retention and low rejects levels. Components made of Stanyl High Flow maintain their dimensional integrity during reflow soldering up to 280°C (535°F) due to the extreme high stiffness level of the materials at these temperatures. Stanyl High Flow materials are less sensitive to shear heating and need different settings during injection molding. Additional information is available in the Stanyl High Flowbrochure.
