Grivory HT6 is preferably used in automotive engineering, where cost-effectively produced lightweight components can be used as metal replacement. This allows cost savings to be achieved, for example through lower wall thicknesses, while the high-performance polymer remains resistant even at extremely high temperatures. It is this maintained resistance which makes it possible to use the material in metal replacement applications and allows cost savings to be achieved.
Available since 2020, the glass fibre-reinforced Grivory G7V from EMS-GRIVORY combines properties such as increased stiffness and strength, even after moisture absorption, with the chemical resistance of a Grivory GV and the high-quality finish of a low or non-reinforced polyamide. In addition, the new Grivory G7V products exhibit better UV stability than other semi-aromatic polyamides. Grivory G7V was developed for metal replacement applications requiring an exceptional surface finish. The material is a new aliphatic high-performance polyamide with well-balanced properties, which enable cost-efficient production of lightweight components without any additional painting.
Developed by Jaguar Land Rover, the one-piece headlamp brackets made of Grivory GVL-4H reduces the weight of the assembly by 45% and replaces the previously used brackets made of aluminum and pressed steel sheet in various Jaguar models such as the all-electric I-PACE.
The COVID-19 pandemic called for protective measures for medical staff, doctors, nurses, laboratory workers, the list is endless. In this article we share an insight to a very worthy project in the form of quality protective glasses.
