As a global leader in the chemical industry, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation has launched its new LNP™ ELCRES™ CXL polycarbonate (PC) copolymer resins, which possess outstanding chemical resistance. These special materials are highly suitable for helping customers in the mobility, electronics, industry and infrastructure markets deal with environmental stress cracking and premature failure that may be caused by increased exposure to corrosive chemicals. Besides having higher chemical resistance than existing materials, the LNP ELCRES CXL copolymer resins can also enhance the durability and reliability of components with excellent low-temperature impact resistance and weatherability.

With the increasing demand for high-frequency and high-speed transmission, PEI has reduced its dielectric constant to below 3.0 (at 1 GHz) through molecular structure optimization (such as the introduction of fluorinated groups), making it a core material for 5G millimeter-wave connectors.

The PC/ABS alloy combines the high strength and heat resistance (110°C) of PC with the easy processability of ABS, widely used in automotive (dashboards, door handles), 3C electronics (laptop casings), communications (5G base station covers), and home appliances. It features UV resistance, flame retardancy (V-0 rating), and dimensional stability. Defects like silver streaks and warping are addressed through drying (120°C ×4h), mold temperature optimization, flow promoters, and structural design. Nano-enhanced (thermal conductivity 1.2 W/m·K) and bio-based modifications (40% carbon reduction) are expanding its applications in new energy and medical fields.

Basic Concept of CLTE The Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion (CLTE) is used to characterize the degree of expansion of a material as temperature rises and to assess its risk of cracking under thermal stress. Understanding the relative expansion/contraction properties between different materials in contact is crucial for successful applications.

Automotive engineering plastics are driving comprehensive technological upgrades and green transformations across body structures, exterior systems, powertrain-chassis, and interiors through innovations in lightweighting, high performance, and sustainability.

The aerospace industry is undergoing a lightweight revolution powered by specialty engineering plastics. Imported high-performance materials like PEEK, PI, and PPS, renowned for their exceptional lightness, extreme environment resistance, high strength, and flame retardancy, are increasingly replacing traditional metals in cabin interiors, engine components, avionics, and UAV structures. Advancements such as composite reinforcement and 3D printing compatibility are further expanding their applications. Amidst market growth and sustainability demands, these plastics have become key enablers for efficient and green aerospace manufacturing, with a promising future.
