  • Long-fibre-reinforced, thermoplastic moulding compound, method for production thereof and use thereof
    Patent number: 8637598
    Abstract: A long-fiber-reinforced, thermoplastic molding compound of plastics material has outstanding impact strength and notched impact strength if it contains 30 to 90% by weight of at least one thermoplastic polyolefin, 9 to 69% by weight of at least one glass-like reinforcing fiber and 1 to 30% by weight of at least one mineral filler of an average particle size in the range from 0.1 to 2 ?m. The molding compound is produced by the pultrusion method and is used in the production of domestic appliances such as washing machines or washer-dryers or electrical appliances such as coffeemakers or toasters or refrigerators or in automobile construction.

  • Method for producing components in the engine compartment of motor vehicles by means of thermoplastic materials
    Publication number: 20030057605
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing components for the engine compartment with a relatively high degree of integration, where at least one thermoplastic polymer is preplastified and the plastified material in the plastic state is laid down in a defined manner in a compression mold and is molded in a subsequent compression procedure. The present invention further relates to the components produced by the present process, in particular labyrinth plates for automatic gearboxes.

  • Thin-walled conductor track systems comprising at least one thermoplastic
    Publication number: 20010027232
    Abstract: The present invention relates to thin-walled conductor track systems with a high degree of integration made from at least one thermoplastic polymer, obtainable by preplastifying at least one thermoplastic polymer and placing the plastified material into a press tool in a defined manner, while in the plastic state, and then molding the plastified material in a compression procedure.
