Outstanding resistance to ageing at 200°C with high flowability, enhanced surface aspect and excellent weldability Approved by Tier-1 automotive suppliers

Lyon, France, Oct. 17, 2017– DOMO Chemicals has launched Technyl® Red S, a highly heat stabilized polyamide designed especially for automotive applications operating at a continuous temperature of 200°C. It is an ideal solution for turbo engine air ducts and coolers as well as cylinder head covers.

“This brand new ‘S’ material further strengthens the proven technology developed for Technyl® HP which has equipped over 40 million vehicles made during the last seven years,” says Didier Chomier, Automotive Global Marketing Manager for DOMO’s Performance Polyamides Global Business Unit. “Technyl® Red S provides automotive industry applications with enhanced thermal ageing stability without compromising performance or competitiveness.

Technyl® Red S can withstand a continuous operating temperature of up to 210°C (at 1,000h) or 200°C (at 2,000 hours). With its new and innovative formulation, Technyl® Red S further improves strong impact and resistance to acid condensates, offers high flowability, superior surface aspect and excellent weldability.

This innovative material is currently being authorized at major automotive Tiers. “Technyl® Red S is directly resulting from long-lasting intimacy with leading players in thermal management systems,” Chomier adds. “We have also extended our Application Performance Testing (APT®) centers to conduct testing in turbocharged environments, providing our customers with full part performance validation under their own operating conditions.
