K2019 – MATERIALS | EXHIBITION PREVIEW
TPE in non-pneumatic tyres, that are not supported by air pressure. Arnitel’s suitability stems from a combination of flexibility, high temperature resistance, strength and processing characteristics. In additive manufacturing, DSM will show a
Ducati motorbike airflow chamber that uses 10% carbon-fibre filled Novamid in the FFF (fused filament fabrication) process. Another example is a car tail light enclosure produced with the SLS process using Arnite PBT powder. �

Evonik’s display at K2019 includes the latest additions to its polymer and additive ranges. In the high performance polymer sector, the company will mark the 40th anniversary of its Vestamid PA12 elas- tomer (PEBA) with the introduction of a new grade offering considerably improved levels of transpar- ency and gloss. The additive display includes the Tegomer range of additives, as well as the Accurel family of porous carriers that allow liquid additives to be easily handled in compound formulations. Latest additions to the additive product line include flame retardants and odour absorbers. �

Feddersen Group companies exhibiting at K2019 include compounder Akro-Plastic showing its new product developments. It has expanded its
Citos seat system made of Akro-Plastic’s Akromid B28 GF 25 9 compound by the company Franz Kiel
portfolio of PPA compounds from those based on PA 6T to new ones based on the homopolymer PA 9T (brand name Akromid T9). These are particularly characterised by lower water absorption in com- parison with PA 6T and thus more consistent mechanical performance. Initial tests also show better flowability and faster crystallisation behav- iour, which will facilitate the very complex produc- tion of PPA compounds, says Akro-Plastic. For the public transport sector, the compounder
has expanded and improved its portfolio of halogen-free flame-retardant compounds. In long fibre reinforced compounds, the company has been working with Feddem on compounds that show a factor of 2-3 times higher tenacity than short fibre reinforced compounds with improved ageing stability and creep properties. Particularly noteworthy is Akromid B28 LGF 40 1 L: a chemi- cally coupled blend of PA 6 and PP, which flows much better than a pure PA 6 with 40% glass fibre reinforcement and offers conditioned strengths higher than a 50% reinforced PA 6. Other companies in the group are distributor KD
