Learn about PA66 solutions for the next generation of automobiles at VDI

Automotive equipment manufacturers are faced with increasingly stringent regulatory standards. Cars of tomorrow have to be lighter weight, produce less emissions and get more out of each drop of fuel.

Ascend Performance Materials is committed to the changing automotive industry. Ascend’s automotive material portfolio offers superior heat and chemical resistance, allowing customers to exceed even the most rigorous requirements. Our new PA66 glass-reinforced Vydyne R530HR, designed for radiator end tanks and made of 30% glass fiber, can withstand an aging requirement of 3,000 hours at 120°C. Ascend one of the world’s largest fully-integrated producers of PA66 resin and offers a comprehensive portfolio of glass-reinforced and mineral-reinforced PA66 grades.

Ascend offers PA66 products for use throughout an automobile – our fiber is used in air bags and tire cords and our polymer is used under the hood and throughout the interior and exterior of a car.

Ascend also will be showcasing new products for electrical and electronic applications. For these applications, Ascend offers grades of PA66 that are glass-reinforced, flame retardant, electrically neutral and halogen free.
