Reinforced structural parts

Reinforced PA, PBT and PBT compounds for automotive applications

Reinforced polymer compounds are widely used for manufacturing structural automotive parts due to their excellent combination of mechanical properties and design flexibility. NUREL offers a wide portfolio of thermoplastic resins compounds, based on polyamide (PA), or polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), reinforced with materials like glass fibers or mineral fillers. Our optimal aditivation packages of reinforcing agents enhances the strength, stiffness, and overall performance of our compounds, making them the suitable materials for critical structural applications in the automotive industry.

Reinforced polymer compounds continue to play a crucial role in the automotive industry, offering a balance between performance, cost-effectiveness, and design flexibility. As automotive technology advances, the demand for lightweight and durable materials like reinforced PA and PBT polymers is expected to grow further, driving continuous innovation in this field.

Key benefits of reinforced polymer compounds for structural automotive

High Mechanical Strength: The incorporation of reinforcing materials on based PBT and PA polymers provides superior mechanical properties, enabling to withstand heavy loads and stresses commonly encountered in automotive structures.
Lightweight: Despite their enhanced strength, reinforced polymer compounds are significantly lighter than traditional metal alternativesThis contributes to improved fuel efficiency and overall vehicle performance.
Dimensional Stability: Our reinforced polymers exhibit excellent dimensional stability, maintaining their shape and integrity under varying temperature and mechanical conditions.
Corrosion Resistance: Unlike metal parts, reinforced polymer compounds are inherently corrosion-resistant, increasing the longevity of automotive components and reducing the need for protective coatings.

Structural automotive parts made from reinforced PA and PBT compounds

Promyde (PA) and Proxylene (PBT) reinforced polymer compounds are used to manufacture front and rear bumper beams, providing impact resistance and crash protection. Also Structural body panels, such as door panels and floor reinforcements, can be made from Proxylene (PBT) and Promyde (PA) compounds to maintain vehicle rigidity and safety. Our reinforced polymers are utilized in seat frames and backrests to ensure durability and occupant safety.
