Repol approaches the plastic skin

Repol group is a unique company. Known mainly for its polyamides and technical plastics in general, provides a unique and intangible touch associated with people working in it, with a few undoubted technical capacities to develop and market its plastics and a surplus of talent in the personal, human, in that we always forget when we we submerged in the workplace: that the person exists and it comes out good or bad.

Group Repol, in 2005 its 30 anniversary, goes to the fair with its partner J & A, with a motto that says a lot, especially if you visit their facilities and is known to those who make everything work: "Humanizing the plastic". All share a passion for the engineering of the technical plastics in Group Repol, and this results in innovative products and expansion into new markets. The annual 7 per cent of its turnover dedicated to r & d, which allows you to make progress in the fields that you know more, but also delve into others as the nanocomposites, where is already beginning to achieve results that will be very interesting for its customers. Innovative is also the agreement signed with the German J & A Plastics, two SMEs with a joint international strategy which is reflected in their participation in 2004 K. His idea of progress is clear: "the goal is to grow enjoying" is one of the slogans of Vicente Beltrán, managing director of group Repol.

Group Repol (Almazora, Castellón) is a manufacturer and distributor of technical plastics. Manufacturing is carried out in Repol, S.L., and its range of products covers the polyamides Dinalon PA6, PA66 and PA6/PA66 for injection which also include a wide range of compounds custom and standard products of high quality.

Repol Group also sells a complete selection of technical polymers through its subsidiary AB Polymers. Thus, it also offers PC (Anjalon), PBT (Anjadur), PC/ABS (Anjablend A), PC/PBT (Anjablend B), POM (Kocetal) and TPE (Kopel).

The mechanical properties of the new fire retardant polyamide Dinalon reinforced with fiberglass, without halogen and red phosphorus, are equal or superior to halogenated materials.

So far, the existing market fireproof reinforced polyamides containing either halogen or red phosphorus. Halogenated materials allow to obtain natural colours, but the mechanical properties of resin are something diminished with regard to the of not fireproof resins and also present disadvantages in regards to health and the environment.

Fire-resistant materials which contain red phosphorus, the existing so far, although in principle alternative are considered less harmful to environment and health problems, and their decline in properties with regard to the non-fire-retardant resins is less than the halogenated materialsthey have the disadvantage of being dark red, that is to say that not available with light-colored, white or natural materials.

Group Repol da response to the growing demand for technical flexibility polymers and impact resistance improved by modified Dinalon Super Tough resins of maximum resistance to impact, Dinalon Medium Impact for general applications and Dinalon Dry-Impact, which combines the resistance to impact with a low viscosity.

The "Super tough" polyamides have a resistance to impact and flexibility top, presenting also optimal flow and anti-corrosion properties.

These materials are designed with high levels of technologically advanced reactive impact modifiers, and are available both in base PA6 as PA66.

Modified high-impact materials expand the possibilities of manufacturing parts of high-performance, as for example flanges of high-strength parts with unions type spring or housings for power tools. The polyamides Dinalon of high-impact, which are also offered as reinforced compounds and are available in a wide range of colors, are also suitable for a wide variety of low temperature applications.

For applications in addition to resistance to impact require a greater rigidity offers the Dinalon Medium Impact modified polyamides.

The Dry-Impact range, for its part, has been developed for applications that require some resistance to the impact but at the same time a low viscosity, allowing for example pieces of thin-walled injection.
