... to be optimistic. The innovative automotive sector is making an important contribution to this. Eva Bittmann Globalisation and consolidation among manufacturers of thermoset raw materials have not yet come to an end. The moulding compound supplier Vyncolit N.V. (formerly owned by the Swedish Perstorp Group) including its recently acquired US arm, Vyncolit North America Inc. (previously Rogers Corporation), has just become part of the Sumitomo Bakelite company. Another merger in this sector is ...

Kunststoffe international, 2005-11-21, CAD/FEA Integration: Water Pump with Improved Long-term Performance
CAD/FEA Integration: Water Pump with Improved Long-term Performance To model engineering components from phenolic resin, Vyncolit uses an FE analysis system. The development of a new water pump for a car engine is used as an example to demonstrate the potential of this thermoset to cut costs, reduce weight and increase the efficiency of a component previously produced from metal. Gerhard Auer Engineering phenolic resins have a range of physical properties that make them ideal for many appl...

... BMW is using an intake module for its new 8-cylinder engines in which the length of the intake pipe can be infinitely adjusted (Fig.2). The movable internal assembly consists of several shells made to very narrow tolerances. Vyncolit thermoset, which can be injection moulded, was chosen for this application. New types of air supply elements are being used in the CDI engines of the DaimlerChrysler C and E class models. They are made by 3D coextrusion, which has led to considerable cost savings. ...
