Lightweight Compounds
Weight reduction plays a key role, especially in the transport sector. The lower the mass that needs to be moved, the less energy and fuel are required. This leads to lower operating costs and an improved environmental footprint thanks to reduced CO₂ emissions.
To provide high-performance polyamide compounds with significantly reduced density, PENTAC Polymer GmbH relies on three defined approaches.
PENTALLOY (PA + PP)
With PENTALLOY alloys, part of the polyamide is replaced by polypropylene. This combines the positive properties of both polymers.
• 7–10% weight reduction compared to pure polyamide
• Excellent flow behavior
• Very good mechanical properties and high temperature stability
• Good resistance to chemicals
• Reduced moisture absorption
Polyamide can be flexibly adapted to different component requirements through targeted combination with other polymers. The development of these alloys is ongoing and is guided by both market needs and specific customer requirements.
The PENTALLOY product group includes various base polymers. Defined polymer combinations create alloys that can be precisely tailored to customer requirements.
High-Performance Compounds
PENTAC Polymer GmbH has been developing and producing polymer compounds for more than 30 years. The focus is always on the customer with his needs, which are met by the many years of experience in the development of high-quality plastic compounds.
What are High-Performance Compounds?
High-performance compounds are specially developed compounds/polymers. Especially in terms of heat deflection temperature and chemical resistance, high-performance compounds with their combinations of PPA or PA-6.6+PPA are excellently suited. PENTAC’s high-performance compound materials not only offer a higher melting temperature and higher crystallinity but also bridge the gap between technical polymers PA-6 or PA-6.6 and cost-intensive high-performance polymers. The combination into a polymer blend of PPA and polyamide 6.6 is suitable for metal substitutions. By adding further stabilizers and additives, these property profiles can be precisely adapted to specific requirements.
Product Portfolio of High-Performance Compounds
For PENTAC, the customer and their needs are the focus. The aim is to satisfy your needs through our many years of know-how in product development and production. For this reason, PENTAC is broadly positioned in the field of high-performance compounds in order to develop and produce the best high-performance compound for your application together with you.
Due to the different high-performance base polymers, PENTAC covers a wide range of property profiles. PPA (AHT2) perfectly bridges the gap between polyamide 6.6 or polyamide 6 and cost-intensive high-performance polymers. The combination of PA-6.6+PPA (AHS), a polymer blend that is classified between PPA and the classic technical polyamide 6 and polyamide 6.6, forms an optimal bridge connection between the polymer properties.
Advantages of Using High-Performance Compounds
Due to the high melting temperature, high crystallinity and crystallization speed of the high-performance compounds, they are ideally suited for applications where a combination of temperature resistance, oil and chemical resistance, as well as low friction behavior and fatigue behavior is required. Another side effect is the excellent dimensional stability, which is caused by a lower water absorption of the PPA’s compared to conventional polyamides.
