At the upcoming Fakuma trade fair, Sun Chemicals will demonstrate its growing range of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and masterbatch solutions. The company offers the broadest PPS compound portfolio of any manufacturer in the world. On display will be a range of developments suitable for automotive e-power trains, such as e-engines, power electronics, lithium-ion battery cells for hybrid and electric cars, and pipe extrusion for thermal management of both combustion and electrical engines.
This includes the Sun Chemical’s newly developed PPS Z-200-XP Black grade –an unfilled, impact modified, extrusion polyphenylene sulfide grade designed for use in pipe and tube applications; and its PPS Z-240 Black injection moulding grade for bus bar applications for hybrid and electric cars, which offers high flowability, temperature and heat shock resistance, high dielectric strength and very low dimensional tolerances.
At Fakuma 2023, Sun Chemical will present its sustainable portfolio of masterbatch solutions including:
- Biodegradable masterbatches, Sicoversal B – Designed to reduce environmental impact, these masterbatches with bio-degradable carrier systems are ideal for applications requiring a shorter lifecycle.
- Sicolen ECO and Sicoversal ECO masterbatches with bio-based carriers – Crafted from renewable resources, these masterbatches offer an eco-friendly alternative to fossil-based products without compromising on performance.
- SicolenR with a recycled carrier – These masterbatches maximise the recycling content in the final product, contributing to a circular economy.
