Press release date: October 13, 2011

Ticona Engineering Polymers - 2011 / 2010 JEC Innovation Award recipient - is showcasing its thermoplastics for composites at SAMPE Tech 2011, Booth # 501, Oct. 18 to 19 at the Omni Fort Worth Hotel, Fort Worth, Texas.

The Ticona exhibit will highlight thermoplastic solutions for films, fibers, non-wovens, multifilaments, papers and continuous-fiber composites used in light and tough components that can reduce weight, drive down costs and perform in extreme environments.

The Ticona thermoplastics and composites portfolio includes:
Fortron® polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) with proven production performance in critical aerospace structures
o Superior FST (flame, smoke, toxicity) performance - exceeds aircraft interior requirements
o High-temperature performance to 240ºC (as demonstrated under-the-hood)
o Superior dimensional stability (low shrink, CTE and creep)
o Broad chemical resistance to fuels, oils, solvents, fluids, strong acids, bases (pH 2-12), even at elevated temperatures
o Substantial cost savings vs. other high-temperature polymers
Celstran® continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastics (CFR-TP) for tapes and custom shapes
o Low weight with high stiffness and toughness
o Excellent impregnation technology
o High-performance dimensional, mechanical and thermal properties
o Superior chemical and corrosion resistance
o Eco-friendly processing, recyclability
o Wide range of resins, fibers and additives
