PBN

Polybutylene Naphthalate (PBN) is a high-performance semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic known for its combination of thermal stability, mechanical strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to demanding environmental conditions. Its low moisture absorption helps maintain dimensional and electrical performance, while its good chemical and wear resistance makes it suitable for components exposed to mechanical stress and repeated operation. PBN can be formulated and reinforced to achieve specific requirements for strength, stiffness, thermal performance, and dimensional control. It can be processed using conventional thermoplastic techniques such as injection molding, making it suitable for producing precise and complex components. PBN is used in selected automotive, electrical and electronic components, connectors, precision parts, industrial components, and applications requiring reliable performance under elevated temperatures and demanding operating conditions.
