BERGEN OP ZOOM, Países Bajos – 15 de diciembre de 2011 – Debido a que los equipos de protección solo resultan eficaces cuando los trabajadores los utilizan, 3M™ ha diseñado una nueva línea de protectores para la cabeza y cascos de seguridad cómodos y ergonómicos, hechos con las ligeras resinas Xenoy* y Lexan* OQ de calidad óptica de la unidad de negocios Innovative Plastics de SABIC. La nueva línea de unidades de protección de cabeza con respirador Versaflo™ serie M de 3M utiliza la resina de policarbonato/tereftalato de polibutileno (PC/PBT) Xenoy con colores personalizados para las estructuras de las cascos y los marcos de los visores, lo que permite aplicar diseños de espesores de pared delgados que contribuyen a la reducción del peso de las piezas en aproximadamente un 15-20% en comparación con el anterior diseño (serie L) de productos de la compañía. La resina de PC Lexan OQ de excelente transparencia, que se utiliza en los visores, ofrece una sobresaliente calidad óptica y alta resistencia al impacto.
