Celanese to Demonstrate Tough and Attractive Thermoplastics at Feiplastic

Mon, April 27 2015

DALLAS & SAO PAULO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Celanese Corporation (NYSE: CE), a global technology and specialty materials company, today announced it will exhibit its industry leading engineered materials and polymer solutions at Feiplastic, the international plastics trade event from May 4-8 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

At the event, Celanese will highlight its Celstran® long-fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFRT) product advantages and capabilities. Many manufacturers in the automotive, consumer, industrial and aerospace industries choose Celstran® LFRT over conventional short-fiber reinforced thermoplastics because it is tough and resistant to chemicals, corrosion and high temperatures.

Manufacturers in these industries require metal replacement, strength and lightweight materials that results in improved performance and lower emissions. At the same time, it is critical they maintain design freedom and easy processing in low and high temperatures. Celstran® LFRT meets all of these requirements while also allowing stunning textures and surface appearance in a variety of mold-in colors, including metallic and chromes that eliminate the need for paint.

Celanese’s Celstran® LFRT material unites long-fiber reinforcements with advanced thermoplastic resins for a combination of mechanical properties, impact, creep resistance and low warpage. Manufacturers use Celstran® LFRT in products consumers use every day such as car instrument panels and gear shift levers, home appliances, power tools, piping, seating systems in airplanes, and much more.

Visit the company’s Feiplastic trade show booth B400 to see innovative applications of Celstran® LFRT and other polymer solutions from Celanese.
