RADILON DT and RADILON D semi-flexiblesPA6.12 and PA6.10 extrusion grade, heat stabilised for diesel fuel lines.

Michael Cain, CEO of Radici Plastics USA, stated: "We are focusing our attention on our high performance engineering plastics from the RADILON and RADISTRONG lines.

"These products ensure the highest performance and sustainability and are getting a great response from our markets, particularly electrical and automotive, of which the latter still presents the greatest opportunities for growth. In the NAFTA area, there are good prospects for growth in the transport and industrial markets as well, and the development of products for new applications in these two sectors is constantly ongoing."

He added that NPE is an excellent platform for RADICIGroup's offering, which will include conventional polyamide engineering plastics to specialist plastics, thermoplastic elastomers and acetal copolymers.

"Radici Plastics USA closed its 2014 fiscal year with total sales revenues of $70 million ($47.26 million),” Cain concluded. "Now our goal is to acquire new market share. During the next five years we expect a yearly growth rate higher than the average market growth rate. Of all the NAFTA area countries, we are looking with special interest at Mexico, a country where the automotive industry is experiencing a period of promising growth."

At the event, the focus is on both RADILON and RADISTRONG nylon specialty materials.

• RADILON enhanced heat-resistant specialities, from the more traditional HHR nylon 6.6 engineering polymers, featuring excellent high heat-ageing resistance at air temperatures of up to 210°C, to the new RADILON XTreme line developed for hot-air applications at continuous service temperatures of up to 230°C.

• RADISTRONG long-fibre reinforced PA6 and PA6.6 specialities, ideal for metal replacement applications. 
RADILON D, nylon 6.10 engineering plastics.
RADILON DT, nylon 6.12 long-chain engineering plastics.
• From the conventional RADILON nylon engineering plastics to the RADILON XTreme, RADILON D and RADILON DT specialities, HERAFLEX thermoplastic elastomers and HERAFORM acetal copolymers.
