Xyron X600
modified PPE
Modified PPE resins are polymer alloys formed by compounding PPE resins with other types of resin. PPE resins are engineering plastics featuring excellent heat resistance, flame retardance, electrical properties, and dimensional stability, with low water absorption and low specific gravity. Asahi Kasei uses 2,6-xylenol as a raw material to produce PPE, and then to form alloys and compounds with other resins to yield an extensive lineup of material grades. For each type of alloy, we offer various grades to meet a diverse range of customer needs, making us Asia's No. 1 manufacturer of modified PPE resins.
