Tech Talk: Insights and trends in water contact applications
During this 20-minute Talk, learn about the latest insights, trends, regulations, and how DSM Engineering Materials works to meet customer requirements in the water contact industry.
Brass, copper, lead, and other metals have traditionally been used in bathroom and kitchen faucets. However, as regulators target substances such as lead which can create health risks by leaching into drinking water, manufacturers are replacing these traditional materials with more advanced thermoplastics.
DSM offers a robust portfolio of proven material solutions for faucets including EcoPaXX® bio-based PA410, ForTii® PPA, Xytron™ PPS and Akulon® PA6 & PA66.
EcoPaXX® Q-DWX10 is a long aliphatic polyamide with excellent mechanical & flow performance for use in food contact & drinking water applications

Lead contaminated water is not only specific to the United States, it has also been found in many European countries. Based on different water regulations in different countries, manufacturers in the building and construction industries need to offer an alternative material to metal in parts they produce.
DSM adds glass-reinforced grade of its ground-breaking high temperature-resistant ForTii Ace polyamide and Xytron polyphene sulphide (PPS) compounds to its specialty portfolio of materials for products used in water management.
