CHINAPLAS: Teijin to exhibit high-quality films and carbon fibers

The Teijin Group will participate at this year’s Chinaplas. Marking its 14th appearance at the event, Teijin will emphasize its involvement in the fields of mobility, information and electronics, and the environment and energy in China, a high- priority market in the Teijin Group’s medium to long-term growth plan.

The exhibit will include a wide variety of advanced, high-quality materials, including resins, films and carbon fibers produced by the Teijin Group. Some of the representative items to be showcased at the Teijin booth (11.2J41) include:

Automotive Materials

Panlite is a polycarbonate resin used as a glass alternative in vehicles around the world, including the new Citroen DS5. It also is incorporated in large molded automotive components, such as panoramic roof systems and rear garnish.

LED Lighting Materials

As environment awareness increases in China, the demand for LED lighting is growing. The Teijin booth will exhibit resin materials suited to LED lighting applications due to their advanced properties for light-diffusion, industry-leading thinness of 1.0mm and excellent flame retardancy based on the UL standard Subject 94 V-0. Teijin resins are incorporated in diverse lighting applications, including straight-tube lighting, lamps and ceiling lights.

Other Advanced Resin Materials

Biofront and Planext bioplastics are oil-free materials suited to a wide range of applications, including automotive parts, electronic products and components, and medical products. The booth also will exhibit Teonex, a PEN resin with growing applications in tableware and bottles.

Teijin also will exhibit various grades for optical lenses developed for smartphones and tablet PCs and a proprietary composite resin material incorporating nickel-coated carbon fiber that provides 50% greater electromagnetic wave shielding than conventional materials.

Teijin is a technology-driven global group offering advanced solutions in the areas of sustainable transportation, information and electronics, safety and protection, environment and energy, and healthcare. Its main fields of operation are high-performance fibers such as aramidCAMPO
