Arnitel EM400 is a unique ThermoPlastic Copolyester (TPC) which creates a world of living solution. Are you looking for a material that bends, squeezes, breaths, seals, bounces. More at DSM
Arnite T-XG510 (PBT, PET, and blends) are high-performance engineering plastics that combine high strength and rigidity with excellent processing characteristics. As a result, Arnite PBT and PET are well suited for a broad range of automotive, electrical/electronic, appliance and industrial equipment applications. More at DSM
Akulon K224-G6 polyamide resins represent the best value in all-purpose engineering materials. For molded parts, they offer an excellent balance of easy design and processing with outstanding mechanical properties over a wide temperature range and in diverse operating environments. For extrusion uses, the toughness, resilience and processability of Akulon set the market standards. More at DSM
Newly-introduced EcoPaXX UF is a green, bio-based material: approximately 70% of the polymer consists of building blocks derived from castor oil as a renewable resource. Castor oil is a unique natural material and is obtained from the Ricinus Communis plant, which grows in tropical regions. It is grown in relatively poor soil conditions, and its production does not compete with the food-chain. More at DSM
Arnitel XG is a reliable solution that meets industry standards and is compliant with UL 62, UL 758, and UL 1581. Good chemical resistance combined with high mechanical properties allow for the production of smooth, flexible cables. And there is no upgrade or investment needed to produce cables with Arnitel XG.

DSM Performance Materials Award 2010 presented to Professor Han E.H. MeijerHan E.H. Meijer, Professor of Polymer Technology and Scientific Director of the Research School Eindhoven Polymer Laboratories at the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, has been awarded the DSM Performance Materials Award 2010 in recognition of his exceptional contributions to the advancement of the materials sciences. Professor Meijer is one of the world’s leading scientists in the field of predicting polymer structuring during processing and the relation between resulting structure and mechanical performance. His outstanding fundamental and applied research and his dedication to innovative science have earned him a high reputation in the academic world.
The DSM Performance Materials Award, which was introduced in 2008, forms part of DSM’s Innovation Awards Program and is presented in cooperation with the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). DSM grants the award every two years in recognition of scientific work that has significantly contributed to the advancement of the materials sciences. The 2008 winner was Professor Craig J. Hawker of the University of California in Santa Barbara, USA. Source: DSM
