Air Intake Tube
Replacing metal is the quickest way to take the weight off a car. Typically, a 10 percent reduction in vehicle weight can lead to an 8 percent improvement in fuel economy.
Ryton® PPS absorbs little to no moisture, giving it exceptional dimensional stability and the ability to hold tight tolerances.
In addition to high heat resistance, Ryton® PPS eliminates corrosion caused by road salts and withstands a broad range of aggressive automotive fluids. For this reason, the areas where Ryton® PPS is making an inroad include engine components like air intake housings and water pumps.
Air Ventilation Duct
The exceptional heat and chemical resistance of Ryton® PPS accounts for its broad acceptance in thermal management components used in turbocharged engines, which are designed to save 10-30% in fuel consumption.
Modern engines are small and compact, yet they provide improved safety, comfort and performance. This is due to a thermal management system that is infinitely more complex and sophisticated.
This requires added electronic functionality – which increases engine temperatures – and redesigned components. High-performance polymers like Amodel® PPA and Ryton® PPS have become an indispensable part of thermal management systems because of their reliable performance at high temperatures and their ability to resist the harsh chemicals that circulate through the water/glycol cooling and turbocharging systems.
Hybrid Power Module
The Power control unit for hybrid engines is comprised of a series of power modules that use sophisticated electronics to regulate the flow of current from the battery to the motor. Ryton® PPS delivers a high level of performance needed to protect these sensitive electronics from harsh operating conditions throughout the vehicle’s lifetime.
Benefits of Ryton® PPS for Electric Traction Motors
- Superior molding processing performance to support a compact design
- Outstanding thermal shock resistance
- Inherent flame retardant
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Chemical Resistance to ATF
- Moisture Resistance
- Thermal conductivity: >2 W/m-k (thru-plane)
Automotive fluids
Extensive test data demonstrates that Ryton® PPS compounds, regardless of the filler and/or additives used, are virtually impervious to all common automotive fuels (including alcohol-containing flex fuels), lubricating oils, transmission fluids, brake fluids, and other hydraulic fluids. Although differences in fillers and additives can affect resistance to engine coolants, Ryton® PPS compounds are generally very resistant to glycol-based and silicone-containing coolants, even at elevated temperatures.
Ryton® R-4-220NA is specially formulated for enhanced resistance to the detrimental effects of water at elevated temperatures (see Hot Water), and therefore tends to retain a greater degree of mechanical strength over long-term exposure to high-temperature engine coolants, especially the more aggressive "OAT" and "hybrid" type “long-life” engine coolants.
