Leona™
(polyamide 66)
 
Engineering plastics superior in heat resistance, strength and rigidity, and other key properties, widely used in the production of electrical and electronic, business equipment, and architectural parts and components.
Tenac™
(polyacetal homopolymer)

Tenac-C™
(polyacetal copolymer)
Engineering plastics with a superior, high-level balance of mechanical and slide characteristics, widely used in the production of electrical and electronic, automotive, and industrial parts and components.
Xyron™
(modified polyphenylene ether)
 
Resins that provide superior heat resistance, flame retardance, dimensional stability, and mechanical properties. Outstanding performance in alloys with polystyrene and with other polymers, for product fields ranging from home appliances to business and IT equipment and automotive applications.
Thermylon™ (reinforced nylon 6, 6/6)
 
Thermylon is a family of glass and ceramic fiber reinforced nylon composites. Due to their unique proprietary composition, these products possess outstanding stiffness and toughness. Thermylon physical properties are among the best, in every significant measure, of a high-performance engineering resin. This makes them an ideal replacement for metals and long-glass materials in a wide variety of high-strength applications.
Thermylene™ (filled polypropylene)
 
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc.'s Thermylene Chemically Coupled Glass Fiber Reinforced Polypropylenes encompass a family of thermoplastic products that employ chemically grafted polymer additives. These enhance the adhesion between the glass fiber reinforcement and the polypropylene matrix.
Polypropylene - mineral filled
 
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc. Mineral Filled Polypropylene compounds employ naturally occurring reinforcements such as mica, talc, calcium carbonate, and other materials in specifically selected polymer formulations to provide reasonably priced composites.
Polypropylene - unfilled specialty
 
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc. also provides a line of unfilled, specialty polypropylene products. These products can include enhancements such as the following:
  • Flame Retardance
  • Heat Stabilization
  • Impact Modification
Glass-reinforced styrenics
 
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America, Inc.'s Glass Fiber Reinforced ABS & SAN composites display the optimum combination of strength, stiffness, and practical toughness in styrenic base compounds. Glass fiber reinforcement greatly improves the load bearing capacity of ABS & SAN and moderately extends the upper usage temperature.
