(Evonik) -- Evonik Industries’ new
VESTAMID HTplus M1533 is a 30% glass fiber-reinforced compound that contains an
internal lubricant. Reducing friction and minimizing abrasion, the
polyphthalamide (PPA) amplifies the durability of gearbox components and reduces
the energy consumed in the application. The material extends the repair
intervals, too, because gearbox components made from VESTAMID HTplus M1533 are
self-lubricating and do not need to be greased with additional additives.
The new compound can be used in gear wheels, friction bearings, and ball
bearing cages, among other areas. VESTAMID HTplus M1533 is available in two
colors: natural and black. With this new addition to its product range, Evonik
is also responding to rising global demand for PPA, a high-performance
polymer.
Evonik is the creative industrial group from Germany. Evonik is active in
over 100 countries around the world. In fiscal 2010 more than 34.000 employees
generated sales of around EUR 13.3 bln and an operating profit (EBIDA) of about
EUR 2.4 bln.
