Aerospace

The use of high performance plastics and engineering polymers is crucial in the construction of modern airplanes for several reasons. First of all they are lightweight. In comparison to their metal counterparts they can be as much as ten times lighter, which means a significant increase in fuel efficiency. This is further enforced by their low coefficient of friction. High performance plastics also profit from high strength, and an excellent chemical resistance, two important characteristics for the harsh environments (elevated temperatures, corrosive fuels …) that airplane components are exposed to.

Automotive

In the automotive world, reducing friction and lowering fuel efficiency and emissions is key today. High performance plastics and engineering polymers are increasing their popularity in the automotive industry because they can improve wear performance and lower the weight of modern cars. In comparison to their metal counterparts, they enjoy excellent properties in chemical resistance, which allows for a longer vehicle life. They can also be flexibly integrated in components.

Food & Beverage

The hygienic properties of materials have to be considered in every square inch of a food factory. High performance plastics and engineering polymers benefit from very low coefficients of friction, which ensures a smooth and thus hygienic surface. This makes them the material of choice for many applications in the food and beverage industry. Fluorcarbons also bring lightweight and easy-to-machine properties to the table as an alternative to metal counterparts.
