Ether-based thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) with excellent hydrolysis resistance Enhanced performance for a wide range of applications Sample-ready experimental grade product BASF presents a new ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane: Elastollan® 1400. The new TPU series offers excellent hydrolysis and microbial resistance, combined with stable processability and good compression set. The material has excellent burst pressure properties and can be processed by extrusion and injection molding. The aging stability of Elastollan® 1400 ensures long-lasting performance – a versatile choice for a wide range of applications.

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.

BASF, a global leader in the chemical industry, recently announced the launch of an innovative polyphthalamide (PPA) product, Ultramid® Advanced N2U40G5. This product is specifically developed to meet the stringent technical requirements of the new - generation USB Type - C connectors. The material is now locally produced in China and can be supplied to the global market.

In modern firefighting equipment, the choice of material for helmet visors is of utmost importance. Today, we will delve into two high-performance plastics—PPSU and PSU—and their outstanding performance in firefighter helmet visors and other high-end applications.

High-Performance PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) Film with Broad Application Prospects PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) is a high-performance specialty engineering plastic, classified as a high molecular weight crystalline polymer with a density of 1.35 g/cm³. It features a linear molecular structure formed by alternating benzene rings and sulfur atoms. The combination of rigid benzene rings and flexible thioether linkages endows PPS with outstanding properties, including excellent heat resistance, flame retardancy, chemical corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and dimensional stability.

In the wave of the low-altitude economy, engineering plastics have become an indispensable "unsung hero" for drones and electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, thanks to their lightweight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. From reinforced nylon used in robust fuselages and landing gears, to polycarbonate forming transparent and impact-resistant canopy covers; from the stable performance of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in high-temperature motor components, to the exceptional strength that carbon fiber composites provide for rotors and primary structures—engineering plastics play a critical role in reducing weight, extending range, structural design, and safety protection. They quietly support the performance breakthroughs and commercial adoption of low-altitude aircraft, serving as a vital foundation for the ascent of this new economic paradigm.
