Products
XENCOR
The long-fibre XENCOR thermoplastics Compounds (LFT = long fiber technology) are innovative products for structural applications and metal replacement and are characterised by their durability, heat resistance, dimensional stability and mechanical strength. The LFT compounds are produced with specialty polymers such as polyphenylene sulfide (PPS); polyphthalamide (PPA); polyarylamide (PARA); high-performance polyamide (HPPA); and engineering polymers, such as polyamide 66 (PA66). Depending on the grade, they are available in black or natural colors. Standard pellet length is 9 mm.
Industries
Due to their high mechanical requirements, XENCOR products are used in the automotive industry, for example in engine components and seals. Because of their chemical resistance to aggressive substances, they are used in fuel systems, but above all in the chemical industry (reactor components, seals and pipelines). Their low density allows them to be used in vehicle construction, the aerospace industry and wherever weight savings are required. In addition, they are characterized by high heat resistance, making them ideal for the electrical industry, particularly for encapsulation or the protection of sensitive components.
