Plastic Compounds
Plastic compounds and high-performance resins play a critical role in modern automotive design. They are used across interior, exterior, and under-the-hood applications where durability, heat resistance, chemical stability, and lightweight performance are essential.
Elastomers add flexibility and sealing performance for gaskets, weatherstripping, and vibration dampening, while engineering plastics enable complex shapes and improved safety features. Together, these materials help manufacturers reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency, enhance safety, and deliver long-lasting performance.
Polypropylene (PP)
Lightweight, chemical-resistant, durable thermoplastic widely used in automotive components.
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)
Tough, impact-resistant thermoplastic used for interior trim, dashboards, and inside door handles.
Acrylate Styrene Acrylonitrile
Acrylonitrile, Ethylene-Propylene-Diene, Styrene (AES/ASA)
Tough, impact-resistant and weather-resistant thermoplastic used for exterior garnish, pillar garnish and front grill.
Elastomers (PVC,TPV,
TPO,TPS,TPEE)
Flexible, rubber-like materials used for seals, gaskets, hoses, weatherstripping, and vibration dampeners.
Polymethyl Methacrylate
(PMMA)
High-transparency, good color development, and weather-resistant material used for rear lamp lens and pillar garnish.
Polycarbonate (PC)
Tough, transparent engineering plastic used for headlamp lenses, interior trim, instrument panels, and safety glazing.
PA6/66/Specialty Nylon
PA6 is strong, wear-resistant engineering plastic used for engine covers, air intake manifolds, fasteners, and under-the-hood components. PA66 is also greater heat resistance, stiffness, and dimensional stability than Nylon 6, making it better suited for more demanding thermal and mechanical environments.
Polybutylene Terephthalate
(PBT, PET)
Durable, heat- and chemical-resistant engineering plastic used for electrical connectors, sensor housings, lighting components.
Polyacetal
Polyacetal (POM) is a high-strength, low-friction engineering plastic used for precision components such as gears, fuel system parts, door mechanisms, and electrical connectors, where durability, dimensional stability, and wear resistance are critical.
Nippon Ply
Specialty products from our partners at Nippon Ply.
Add Coat Wire
Solutions for linear stabilization of olefin, vinyl, and rubber extrusions. The most effective shrinkage inhibitor on profile extrusions utilizing thermoplastic materials.
Indent Wire
Zinc-plated steel flat wire mechanically adheres to any kind of resin.
JBright Films
High gloss, high flexibility, high performance film for extrusion molding decorative applications.
ESKA™ Plastic Optical Fiber
Plastic optical fiber, also abbreviated as POF, is a type of optical fiber made out of a type of polymer that transmits light and is used for illumination or data transfer. A big advantage of POF is the fact that it can bend and stretch unlike fiber optics made of glass. ESKA™ is a high performance POF Mitsubishi product which is used for short range communications and light transfer.
The accuracy, quality and precision of ESKA™ capabilities may be found in a broad spectrum of demanding applications which include Critical Site Lighting, In-situ Medical Devices, Automotive Interiors and Networks, Home/Office Networks, Industrial Automation, robotics and much more. Availability is in an assortment of optical fiber grades as well as a variety of functional cable jackets.
ESKA™ Plastic optical fiber meets an array of critical standards including: IEEE 1394; compliance with ANSI, EIA, Ethernet, Profibus, Sercos, MOST plus UL1581 for flame retardation. The temperature operating range is -55°C to 105°. EMI/RFI immunity is also maintained. Recent ISO|IEC|IEEE 8802-3:2017/FD also certified 1GB Ethernet over POF.
Functional Materials
Sankyo America, Inc. offers many other domestic and import products.
Grease
Grease reduces friction and wear between moving automotive components. It helps ensure smooth operation and extends the lifespan of mechanical systems.
Adhesive
Adhesives help improve structural integrity, reduce vehicle weight, and allow for cleaner, more efficient assemply of components
Flocking
Flocking is used in components like glove boxes, door channels, and storage compartments to reduce noise, prevent scratching, and enhance the overall user experience.
