Saudi Arabia Basic Industries Co., Ltd. (SABIC) hopes to use Xenoy HTX as a light metal alternative solution for new safety applications, such as for side-mounted rocker arms, which can be installed on electric Battery module on the car floor.
At the 2019 K show in Germany, the global petrochemical industry leader Shaji Industry launched Xenoy HTX resin, a polyester-based high-heat technology that can be used to produce lightweight, impact-resistant and high-performance automotive structures.
According to the company, car manufacturers now need new polymer solutions to produce structural components that can withstand high temperatures, and Xenoy HTX is very useful. Its related applications include body-in-white components, structural reinforcement components, and electric vehicles (EV). Battery protection system.
Xenoy HTX resin is available in unfilled and glass-filled grades, which significantly reduces weight compared to steel and aluminum. The new thermoplastic material of the Saky Industries also provides a material that can completely replace polyamide 6.6 (PA66) compounds and alloys. This kind of material has recently experienced supply shortages and price fluctuations.
