KyronMAX® S-4340

KyronMAX® S-4340 by Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials is a lightweight, low density, user friendly, hi-temp, PPA-based structural compound. It incorporates short carbon fiber technology. It is formulated to have higher Tg than PEEK. This grade exhibits high stiffness, high thermal resistance, low moisture absorption, low swell and chemical resistance. When molded, parts are 75% lighter than steel and almost 40% lighter than aluminum. It is the strongest moldable polymer available for metal replacement. This grade realizes lower costs & lighter parts and provides unmatched tensile & toughness properties. It is processed by injection molding. It is used in automotive-bushings, washers, pistons, brackets, handles, aerospace-latches, rings, hinges, spacers, seals, adapters and electrical-pins, fasteners, end effectors, connectors, panels. KyronMAX® S-4340 is also used in medical-clamps, vanes, housings, bushings, gears, valves, energy-seals, bearings, plugs, umbilical’s, back-up rings and industrial-valve plates, column packing, gears, valve seats.
