First plastic gas tank for commercial vehicles made of BASF's high-performance Ultramid® polyamide, which weighs up to 20 percent less than an aluminum alternative

Special engineering plastics, as the pinnacle of the field of polymer materials, are a class of high-end engineering plastics with characteristics such as high temperature resistance (long-term operating temperature > 150°C), high strength, and corrosion resistance. Their core value lies in achieving metal substitution through unique molecular structure design, playing an irreplaceable role in strategic industries such as aerospace, new energy, and electronic information. Currently, the global industry is undergoing a structural upgrade from general-purpose plastics to high-performance materials. Special engineering plastics, with their revolutionary advantage of "replacing steel with plastics," have become a key material for the transformation and upgrading of advanced manufacturing.

BASF Ultramid T6000 (PA66/6T) is specifically developed for miniaturized electrical and electronic (E&E) components, bridging the performance gap between PA66 and PPA. This material combines excellent flow properties, easy processability, and long-lasting color stability. It exhibits superior mechanical and dielectric performance over PA66 under hot and humid conditions, while its low moisture absorption ensures dimensional stability.

Shanghai VISA Plastics S&T Co., Ltd. is deeply involved in the development of the Asia-Pacific electric vehicle market. As a seasoned partner of BASF and SABIC for engineering plastics, we provide key material solutions. These innovative plastics are applied in EV battery systems, charging infrastructure, and lightweight structural components, ensuring safety and enhancing efficiency through their superior performance. We collaborate with the industry chain to jointly drive the future of e-mobility towards a more sustainable direction.

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.

In early March 2026, BASF, the global chemical giant, announced a move of profound significance for the Asia-Pacific market: its Shanghai Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) production facility has officially obtained the qualification to produce the full Elastollan® FR (Flame-Retardant) TPU portfolio. This marks BASF's successful achievement of localized supply for its entire range of flame-retardant TPU products—from Eco-friendly Flame Retardant (FHF) to High-Performance Flame Retardant (FR)—in China.
