Degradation & Stability
One of the most challenging environments we work in is under the hood of a car. The parts used in these applications are subjected to high temperatures, broad temperature ranges and corrosive chemicals.
To ensure safety and part integrity, our high-performance plastics need to meet all of the relevant requirements for each application. This includes being exposed to elevated temperatures, humidity and chemicals over both the short and long term, withstanding mechanical or abrasive loads, or preventing fire ignition.
Our team has developed specific expertise in the following areas:
Working closely with our customers, we apply our specific expertise to help them develop optimized part designs using the best materials for their needs. Contact us to discuss your next big challenge to see how we can help.

Today’s cars are 90% quieter than cars from the 1970s, when vehicle noise first began to be legislated. OEMs are also increasingly focused on improving the driving experience.
As car manufacturers seek to meet more strict legislation on tailgate emissions, a key area of focus is the reduction of wear and friction in the engine and transmission.
In some consumer electronics applications, key characteristics of the plastic material are haptics and aesthetics – how they look and feel.
Understanding how compounds with low molecular weight migrate across plastic is important for many applications.
The engineering plastics used in various electronics parts have to comply with strict flame retardancy requirements and more environmentally friendly solutions
