K.D. Feddersen – your distributor for engineering plastics from Teijin

“The Japanese company TEIJIN was the first producer of polycarbonates (PC) in Asia (1960) and is a leading manufacturer of high-quality PC-based products. K.D. Feddersen has been TEIJIN`S partner for many years and distributes the Multilon® product portfolio for automotive applications in many European countries. As the local organisation in Central Eastern Europe, K.D. Feddersen CEE GmbH will assist customers with material selection and technical support.

Multilon® – the PC/ABS with special properties

Multilon® is a blend of polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). The combination of the two amorphous plastics combines both thermal and mechanical properties and therefore offers high temperature resistance, impact strength and good surface properties. In addition, Multilon® has good flowability as well as a high finish quality and tactile properties and is ideally suited for the coating process.

Advantages of Multilon®

Compared to generic PC/ABS products, Multilon® T-2810R and T-2830R are characterised by consistently high toughness values and higher flowability. This is an added value in both processing and design. Multilon® T-2760B is distinguished not only by its good product properties but also by its low surface gloss and low density, compared with other PC+ABS grades. Components made of Multilon® T-2760B are lighter and do not require additional matt coating.

Due to its property profile, Multilon® from Teijin is excellently suited for automotive interior applications and is listed by numerous European and Asian OEMs. The PC+ABS blend is well-established in series production.
