EVENT PREVIEW | FAKUMA 2021 – MATERIALS


Right: EV connectors made in Domo Chemicals’ flame retardant Technyl Orange compound


can be used individually or combined by the customer as desired. For example, weight savings of up to 40% can be achieved and barrier proper- ties (oxygen barrier) can be further optimised. In addition to the conventional PBT grades, ChemCy- cling and Biomass Balance types are also offered, which lead to significant CO2 savings. � www.basf.com


Bieglo Bieglo is presenting a variety of recycled high performance materials at Fakuma. Highlighting the Dexnyl R-PEEK 450G grade with properties such as resistance to chemicals and high temperatures, the company says it recycles PEEK in a quality assured way which fosters environmental as well as eco- nomical sustainability. While reprocessing PEEK the residues are sorted and the PEEK-melt is filtered before granulation, ensuring continuous high quality. � www.bieglo.com


Danquinsa


German compounder Danquinsa will show its renewably-sourced aliphatic and aromatic ECO- TPU products, as well as new TPU compounds and colour masterbatches formulated for automotive interior applications. It will also show its line of polyester and polyamide materials for health and hygiene markets � www.danquinsa.com


Domo Chemical Domo will place its Technyl performance PA compounds at the centre of its display. Products on show include high thermal and chemical resistant materials, light weight grades to replace metals or thermosets, and flame retardant materials for advanced electrical protection. The grades on show will include the recently introduced Techny Orange flame retardant products for production of high-voltage components and cabling for the e-mobility market segment. � www.technyl.com


Elix Polymers Styrenics specialist Elix Polymers will be presenting its E-Loop products and services, a new branding that brings together all of its Circular Economy- focused materials. These include grades using either chemically or mechanically polymers. An example is its E-Loop H801 MR ABS, which contains mechanically recycled resins but is said to match the performance of its virgin ABS H801 material. � www.elix-polymers.com

Finke Finke will showcase its new Fibarec masterbatch series which enables the production of attractive colourful plastic products made from 100% recyclate. These are initially available based on rPET, but Finke says Fibarec based on the carriers rPE and rPP will follow shortly. The Fibarec master- batches can be processed in the same way as masterbatches based on virgin materials and can be used in products based on recyclate as well as in products made from virgin material. Also in the sustainability area, Finke has launched


its range of Fibaplast NIR detectable black master- batches. These are available for standard packaging polymers like HDPE, PP, PS and PET. The company’s Fibafekt special effects collection can be used for products with high PCR content. These enable a wide variety of special effects like metallic gloss, pearly shine, rainbow, colour flop or chrome-like surfaces. It says Fibafekt is a semi-compound to be used in the outer layer of coextruded bottles, high end 2K injection moulding and films. www.finke-colors.eu
