MESA, Ariz., Nov. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

As the leading manufacturer of high-performance thermoplastics, Mitsubishi

Chemical Advanced Materials, (MCAM) has been perfecting its KyronMAX(R)

platform since 2014. KyronMAX(R) polymers are now 20% lighter and 20-50%

stronger, exhibiting tensile strengths above 61,000 psi (420 MPa) and modulus

above 6,300,000 psi (43.5 GPa).

A series of the highest-performance carbon fiber composite materials available

today, KyronMAX(R) is the next generation in injection moldable metal

replacement technology. But it is also much more than just a matchless range of

engineered materials. As Randy White, Chief Innovation Officer explains, "The

uniqueness of KyronMAX is that it is not only available today in over 20 of the

strongest drop-in ready polymers on the planet, but often becomes a true

partnership – where we collaborate with each customer to develop a formula to

specifically fit their unique application". The KyronMAX(R) technology platform

is currently formulated in various thermoplastics including PA, Low Moisture

PA, PPA, Hi-Temp PPA, PC, PPS and PEEK with more in development.

The KyronMAX(R) platform combines design engineering, material science, and

technology to help change the way prototyping, sustainability, and indeed

materials manufacturing and supply operate.

By integrating multiple technologies within one facility, KyronMAX(R) helps

simplify supply chains, improve process flow, and creates more cost-effective

solutions, while delivering superior performance, and a zero-waste, end-of-life

recycling program.

"We embrace the circular economy and therefore we are proud to offer our

business partners a closed-loop supply chain as part of the engineering

partnership of KyronMAX(R). These efforts aim at minimizing the impact on the

environment and maximizing the contribution to a sustainable future. We call

this KAITEKI Value for tomorrow." Ron Denoo, Chief Strategy Officer

As customers continue to search for the strongest moldable polymers available.

KyronMAX(R) materials consistently outperform LFT polymers, especially when

measuring the performance of the as molded part. KyronMAX(R) composites

overcome all the limitations associated with LFT compounds while yielding

stronger parts that are also lighter in weight.
