On March 29, 2021, LANXESS announced that IBS Filtran GmbH, a German-American joint venture, will use LANXESS Durethan BKV35H2.0 polyamide 6 composite material to produce transmission oil pans, which will replace polyamide 66 with polyamide 6 for the production of automotive oils. Another important example of road components.
"IBS Filtran is a long-term partner of LANXESS. Both parties are committed to the development of automotive oil circuit components. One of the results of the cooperation is the development of the first plastic transmission oil pan," said Babak Talebloo, LANXESS key account manager in charge of IBS Filtran cooperation.
Advantages of polyamide 6
"There are two main reasons for using polyamide 6 to make a new oil pan. First, it meets the key requirements of heat resistance, oil resistance, strength and surface quality; second, its price is much lower than that of polyamides on the market. Amide 66.” explains Christof Boden, an expert on plastic components for automotive oil circuits at LANXESS.
IBS Filtran conducted extensive research on polyamide 6 (reinforced with 35% short glass fibers) and found that it has the following advantages:
At 150°C, the anti-aging performance is almost the same as that of polyamide 66;
It has better impact resistance and elongation at break, making the oil pan more resistant to the impact of small stones;
Give the oil pan a higher surface quality and make the surrounding gaskets perform better;
Has a lower shrinkage rate, which helps reduce warpage;
It has good weldability, strong weld seam strength and strong pressure-bearing capacity.
