...for example, can be produced more cost-effectively than before with this material. In addition, a new bellows concept permits replacement of rubber parts by plastic. Easy processing and cost reduction are only two of the plus points that have made Grilon ELX flexible polyamides from Ems-Grivory AG, Switzerland (formerly Ems Chemie) the first-choice material for under-bonnet air duct parts in motor vehicles. In future, the zone between the air filter and turbocharger - or in conventional petrol...

... flame retardancy. Applications include safety switch and relay housings (Fig.2). The two PA66 variants Durethan DP 2801 (unreinforced) and DP 2802/30 (30% glass-fibre-reinforced) meet the tightened-up household appliances standard IEC 60335-1. The Grilon ELX products specially developed by Ems-Grivory for sequential blow moulding, in combination with the Moax bellows design patented by Ems, are opening up completely new air ducting applications in the engine compartment. For the first time, fle...

...ce non-circular areas that tend to “inflate” under internal pressure using stiffer materials, while the Moax areas would be produced with the flexible material component. A material combination of this kind could be produced, for example, with a Grilon ELX 50 HNZ and Grilon EB 50 H from Ems-Grivory, Domat-Ems/ Switzerland. The corrugated pipe design described here would be recommended for applications - in which a certain shape retention must be guaranteed when subjected to internal or external...

...utomotive and electrical/electronic sectors. A significantly improved oxygen barrier also permits numerous new applications in the packaging industry. Grilamid TR 30 offers another interesting detail for processors: it is compatible with Grilon TS or Grivory GV. This permits designers to produce economical multicomponent solutions by injection molding or various post-treatment processes, such as welding of different components. Reinforced and Sustainable Higher functionality and thin-wall techno...
