    1. ABS

      ABS

      Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) is a synthetic terpolymer (terpolymers are copolymers of three monomer types arranged in a random distribution within a linear macromolecule). ABS is derived from the three different monomer types acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene and is an amorphous thermoplastic. ABS is produced on an industrial scale by graft polymerization, but can also be produced by blending (mixing) the finished polymers. Characteristic properties: Good chemical resistance Good sound absorption, both mechanically and acoustically High impact and notched impact strength Well suited for coloring with all colors Electroplatable Relatively low water absorption Areas of application: Toy and household goods industry, automotive, sanitary applications, compounding

    2. ACCELOTHENE - Additive for process optimization and cycle time reduction of polyolefins

      ACCELOTHENE - Additive for process optimization and cycle time reduction of polyolefins

      Reduction of cycle times by 15% - 25% due to significantly shorter cooling times and increased crystallization speed. Requirement: plasticizing time < cooling time. Significant improvement in flow properties (flow path) Significant reduction in process temperature (20 to 50°C) Lower energy consumption (5 to 10%) No significant impairment of material properties Better mechanical properties (under certain conditions) Better homogenization of regrind and regrind

    3. Active for your company in the political arena!

      Active for your company in the political arena!

      Successful political, regulatory and normative decisions always require partners from industry, who bring in their experience and knowledge to mirror and reflect on these decisions with politicians and standardization bodies. Only through this important dialog of stakeholders the acceptance and implementation of political measures can be ensured in the long term. Over 70 years TecPart is the active representation of the plastics processing industry in the field of technical applications for its members, both on the political stage in Brussels and in Berlin, thus bundling the experience of our industry as a "joint special department". Member companies benefit from this knowledge directly and unbureaucratically at any time.

      Advantages of L&R cooling systems

      For over 35 years, L&R Kältetechnik GmbH & Co. KG has been synonymous with energy-efficient, custom-designed refrigeration systems “Made in Germany.” The company develops and manufactures custom refrigeration systems for the plastics, surface treatment, and metal industries, placing particular emphasis on sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and operational reliability. By using natural refrigerants and innovative energy-saving technologies, the systems enable potential savings of up to 80% in operating costs. At the same time, L&R solutions are eligible for up to 45% in subsidies, making them particularly attractive from an economic standpoint. Durable components and a well-designed system architecture ensure high availability and future-proofing. Key technologies include, among others, sliding control of the condensation temperature, free cooling at low outdoor temperatures, and speed-controlled compressors, pumps, and fans. The portfolio is complemented by heat recovery and industrial heat pumps to further increase efficiency. L&R relies on high-quality components and transparent systems with integrated energy monitoring and modern controls, including a remote maintenance option. Customers benefit from a holistic approach—from planning through manufacturing to service, all from a single source. Customized solutions, 24/7 service, and sustainable auxiliary systems such as low-chemical water treatment and pressureless filter systems round out the offering. In addition, L&R designs and builds special-purpose cooling systems for demanding applications down to -120 °C.

    5. Aero2 PCS® ULTRA

      Aero2 PCS® ULTRA

      The Aero2 PCS ULTRA is the most versatile dry ice blasting machine on the market. Equipped with our patented particle control system (PCS®), this machine offers operators complete control of the particle size being blasted to fine-tune their blasting parameters for each unique application. From 0.3mm to 3.0mm, and every tenth of a millimeter between, this machine allows operators to select from 1 of 28 particle sizes to dial in their blasting parameters for optimal performance. Blasting a delicate surface? Select a smaller particle size, say 0.4mm, and blast at a lower pressure. Looking to remove stubborn contaminant? Select a larger particle size, say 2.8mm, and blast at a higher pressure. With a 7” LCD screen and digital controls, the PCS ULTRA provides an intuitive display that allows the user to easily view and adjust blasting parameters and machine settings. The machine also features programmable application recipes, which allows users to set and save blasting parameters, such as blast pressure, particle size and feed rate. Lastly, the PCS ULTRA introduces our patent-pending defrost cycle for moisture control, core cleaning, and increased machine uptime.
