HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPOUNDS | MATERIALS
Driven by events Italian compounder Lati says it has continued to develop new high-end solutions through the pandemic and the immediate post-pandemic period. “Recent political and economic events introduced further factors to be kept under control from availability of raw materials to sustainable development, to energy costs,” the company says. “All these elements helped Lati to focus on some important product lines.” The company cites a new range of high-perfor- mance compounds featuring chemically or mechanically recycled base polymers. The LatiEco family features glass fibre reinforced flame retard- ant compounds, based on recycled PA6 and PA66 and fully approved by UL laboratories. “Flame retardant LatiEco grades are sought after by appliance and power management companies, as well as automotive players who are gradually introducing fire resistant plastics in under-the-bon- net applications for traditional autos as well as power storage or distribution and charging stations for electric vehicles,” the company says. Demands for higher chemical, mechanical and thermal resistance were the driving force in its
development of a full range of special purpose compounds based on aromatic polyamide 9T. Lati says PA9T shows excellent compoundability and injection moulding ease, as well as good chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and high continuous use temperature. PA9T is used in its Laramid T line of compounds, which include thermally and electrically conductive, self-lubricant, flame retardant and reinforced grades for applications in the electrical and electronics industries, for structural parts working in harsh environments, and in “no compromise” automotive components.
