Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials Commercializes the World's Strongest Injection Moldable Polymer Compounds

MESA,Ariz.,Nov. 11,2020 --As the leading manufacturer of high-performance thermoplastics,Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials,(MCAM) has been perfecting its KyronMAX® platform since 2014. KyronMAX® polymers are now 20% lighter and 20-50% stronger,exhibiting tensile strengths above 61,000 psi (420 MPa) and modulus above 6,300,000 psi (43.5 GPa).

A series of the highest-performance carbon fiber composite materials available today,KyronMAX®is the next generation in injection moldable metal replacement technology. But it is also much more than just a matchless range of engineered materials. As Randy White,Chief Innovation Officer explains,"The uniqueness of KyronMAX is that it is not only available today in over 20 of the strongest drop-in ready polymers on the planet,but often becomes a true partnership – where we collaborate with each customer to develop a formula to specifically fit their unique application". The KyronMAX® technology platform is currently formulated in various thermoplastics including PA,Low Moisture PA,PPA,Hi-Temp PPA,PC,PPS and PEEK with more in development.

The KyronMAX® platform combines design engineering,material science,and technology to help change the way prototyping,sustainability,and indeed materials manufacturing and supply operate.

By integrating multiple technologies within one facility,KyronMAX® helps simplify supply chains,improve process flow,and creates more cost-effective solutions,while delivering superior performance,and a zero-waste,end-of-life recycling program.

"We embrace the circular economy and therefore we are proud to offer our business partners a closed-loop supply chain as part of the engineering partnership of KyronMAX®. These efforts aim at minimizing the impact on the environment and maximizing the contribution to a sustainable future. We call this KAITEKI Value for tomorrow."

Ron Denoo,Chief Strategy Officer

As customers continue to search for the strongest moldable polymers available. KyronMAX® materials consistently outperform LFT polymers,especially when measuring the performance of the as molded part. KyronMAX® composites overcome all the limitations associated with LFT compounds while yielding stronger parts that are also lighter in weight.
