Kunststoffe international, 2005-11-21, Good Growth Prospects: Ticona Sets its Stakes on Engineering Plastics
...attractive field for the future which requires the chemical resistance, conductivity and barrier properties of Vectra LCP. Medical Engineering Ticona also has a strong market position for another high-performance plastic – ultrahigh molecular GUR. Apart from its use as a high-performance additive in paints, coatings, rubber and seals, GUR is also used to a large extent in medical engineering today. In the light of its many years' experience in medical engineering applications, Ticona has se...

...t. A similar situation arises for Ticona’s other engineering plastics for the sanitary and drinking water range. There are also polyphenylene sulphide (PPS; grade: Fortron), ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (PE-UHMW; grade: GUR), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT; grade: Celanex) and long fibre reinforced thermoplastics (LFT; grade: Celstran). Conclusion The proposed European drinking water regulations not only lead to changed market conditions, but also require raw material manufacturer...

...nge which have proved their suitability for the field of medical technology over many years: POM (grade: Hostaform/Celcon), PBT (grade: Celanex), PET (grade: Impet), TPE-E (grade: Riteflex), LCP (grade: Vectra), COC (grade: Topas), PE-UHMW (grade: GUR) and PPS (grade: Fortron). Depending on the particular grade, these plastics fulfil all the decisive requirements for medical technology, such as exceptionally low extractable content, very good chemical resistance, high dimensional stability, good...

...nd sales sectors and application development." The main pillar of Ticona’s Asian growth strategy will be China: Back in mid-May, Ticona celebrated the groundbreaking ceremony for two new production plants in Nanjing – one for GUR UHMW-PE and the other for Celstran LFT. Both plants are scheduled to come on stream in 2008. As a result, the company’s global capacity for GUR will increase to over 90,000t/a and capacity for Celstran to more than 35,000t. In February this year, Ticona announced th...

...lar polyethylene powders instead could lower costs. Plasma technology also affords a way of treating other powdered materials such as CNT (carbon nanotubes), metal powders and pigments. Plasma activation as a means of selectively hydrophilizing GUR, an ultrahighmolecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE; manufacturer: Ticona GmbH, Sulzbach, Germany), is already well established on the market. This PE is an efficient industrial additive for paints, lubricating paints, coatings, plastics, rubber, gaske...
