This year at the Fakuma international trade fair for plastics processing RadiciGroup is focusing its attention on some of its latest products:

- RADILON A RV350 HHR 3800 NER, 35% glass-fibre-filled PA6,6 ideal for high-temperature applications in the automotive, industrial and home appliance industries.
- RADILON A RV500 RW339 NER and RADILON S URV600LW 339 NER, PA6,6- and PA6-based products that RadiciGroup has added to its range of engineering plastics for metal replacement.
- RADILON D, a family of PA6,10 engineering plastics produced using 64% organic polymer made from a renewable resource material extracted from the seeds of the castor oil plant (Ricinus Communis).

After the 2012 NPE, CHINAPLAS, PLAST and MSV trade shows, the latest innovations in engineering plastics developed by RadiciGroup Plastics have now arrived at FAKUMA in Friedrichshafen, Germany.

During this international plastics industry fair, RadiciGroup is showcasing three different types of engineering plastics that are ideal for the automotive, industrial and consumer goods sectors.

The featured product lines are: RADILON A HHR (HIGH HEAT RESISTANT) – PA6,6 engineering plastics with exceptional heat resistance to ageing in air at temperatures of up to 210°C –; RADILON A and RADILON S for metal replacement – high-performance PA6 and PA6,6 engineering plastics used as metal and light alloy replacements, even in very critical applications –; and RADILON D – PA6,10 engineering plastics produced using 64% organic polymer (polymerized starting from hexamethylenediamine and sebacic acid).

Radilon products ensure greater mechanical resistance and strain at break, greater resistance and strain at break in the presence of weld lines, and greater impact strength in both wet and dry conditions.

Moreover, at Fakuma RadiciGroup is presenting its Radilon S URV600LW 339 NER high-fluidity, heat-stabilized 60%-glass-fibre-filled PA6 engineering plastics with excellent surface appearance. These materials can be used as metal replacements in home appliances and industrial applications.
