STANYL® PA46 OFFERS SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS FOR OVERMOLDED PARTS
PVS-Kunststofftechnik, a company specializing in overmolded insulation and other precision parts such as cooling fans for the electronic industry, has used Stanyl® PA46 for the stator of the latest electric waterpump produced by Pierburg, the world’s first series-production supplier of electric coolant pumps.
Royal DSM N.V., the global Life Sciences and Materials Sciences company headquartered in the Netherlands, today announces that it will quadruple production capacity for Stanyl® ForTii™ in order to meet market demand for this new polymer, which is used in electronics and other applications.
Bauser, an injection molding company specialized in precision parts located in Wehingen, Germany, has successfully introduced a production process for automotive gears, using DSM Engineering Plastics Stanyl PA46 annealing technology. The company was the first plastic gear supplier in Germany to jointly commercially introduce the technology, almost 2 years ago.
Philips, the world’s leading producer of energy-efficient lighting solutions, has introduced a new LED lamp with a difference. Based on a joint development with DSM, the Philips MASTER LED MR16 retrofit lamp is the first high-power LED application in which the aluminum cover is replaced with a thermally conductive plastic – Stanyl® – to control the heat. Stanyl also offers the additional benefits of flexibility in design, exceptional durability and weight reduction. Going forward, this sustainable solution may be applied across Philips’ LED retrofit lamp range. 
To underline its commitment to the automotive industry, DSM Engineering Plastics is attending key industry events to demonstrate various new solutions for automotive applications.
