The LURANYL® compounds represent a highly valued product group in the ROMIRA portfolio and have been for many years. Their applications in injection molding and extrusion are primarily based on an increased heat resistance. As well as the established standard grades, ROMIRA can always provide customized solutions if required.
The main products include PPE/PS blends under the trade name LURANYL® KR and PPE/PA blends under the trade name LURANYL® HT:
The inherent hydrolytic stability of PPE/PS blends in combination with a high heat deflection temperature allows LURANYL® KR grades to be used in water-carrying components such as pumps or pipelines - even under temperature stress. Consequently, this product class covers specifically certified grades for drinking water applications according to KTW, ACS and WRAS.
Flame-retardant LURANYL® KR blends have high flowability, high heat resistance and excellent flame-retardant properties, which are effective even in the case of thin walls. The excellent processability of this product class makes it highly attractive for the electrical industry for the production of thin-walled parts and is used in terminal blocks, fuses and relays, for example.
LURANYL® HT blends are characterized by very high heat resistance, high media resistance and high impact strength. This combination of properties makes them ideal for special applications in challenging environments, such as powder coating.
