STAMAX™

Description

STAMAX™ resins are long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (LGF PP) compounds offering potential benefits for innovation, production and cost/performance balance.

Benefits

Widely utilized across automotive and other industries, STAMAX™ resins bring significant value to demanding applications requiring performance that are generally beyond the reach of short glass fiber reinforced PP (SGF PP) and other compounds.
These include:

• Higher stiffness and better creep performance compared to SGF PP, especially at elevated temperatures.
• Higher impact performance compared to SGF PP.
• Potential weight and cost savings compared to polyamide (PA) compounds
• Less sensitivity and better performance in moisture environment compared to PA compounds.
• Recyclability compared to PA compounds

Applications

STAMAX™ resins find use in demanding applications, primarily in the automotive, industrial and recreational markets, and frequently replace die-cast metal.
