China SABIC LEXAN ML6412 Manufacturer, Supplier, Factory

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.

BASF compounds are advanced materials used in various industries for manufacturing high-performance products. But what exactly is a BASF compound, and why is it so important in the production of plastics, automotive parts, and other components? In this blog, we’ll explore the significance of BASF compounds and how they are changing the way products are made.

Since 2025, multiple countries have introduced a wave of trade restrictions, with the plastics industry bearing the brunt. Thailand announced a ban on plastic waste imports, Japan fully prohibited products containing perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), the EU expanded its 16th round of sanctions against Russia to include primary aluminum imports, and the Philippines proposed a nickel ore export ban. These measures not only disrupt raw material supplies but also reshape the global plastics trade.

In modern industry and everyday life, friction and wear of mechanical components consume energy, shorten equipment life, and can also cause annoying noise. How can you achieve smoother gears, more durable bearings, and quieter equipment? The application of self-lubricating plastic materials provides an innovative solution to this dilemma. This material not only retains the advantages of traditional plastics, such as light weight and easy molding, but also "self-lubrication", becoming an effective means for mechanical engineers to solve friction and wear problems.

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.

Polyoxymethylene (POM) has become a star material for precision gears due to its metal-like rigidity, excellent fatigue resistance, low friction coefficient, and outstanding dimensional stability. Beyond solving core challenges like wear and noise reduction, it enables innovation in office equipment, automotive components, and micro-transmission systems through lightweighting, design integration, and oil-free operation. Shanghai Weisa Plastic Technology collaborates with industry leaders like BASF and SABIC to provide comprehensive POM solutions—from high-purity Ultraform® to self-lubricating LEXAN™—helping achieve more reliable, efficient, and cost-effective precision drive designs.
