 Press Releases

  • BARplast LLC, a well-known and trusted distributer for High Performance Polymers, is looking forward to welcome its customers at OTC 2022.

    BARplast is a distributor for Mitsui Chemicals, Inc in Europe & USA. AURUM™, a Thermoplastic polyimide by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc Japan and marketed and distributed by BARplast takes up the place at the top of Polymer Pyramid. The exceptional property of the highest class of ‘glass transition temperature’ Tg of 245 °C (473 °F) makes it stand out amongst all other Thermoplastic Polymers. AURUM can be fiber reinforced to improve initial strength (modulus of elasticity 3 > 22 GPa). AURUM ™ has multiple applications across industries thanks to its resistance to radiation and chemicals, great sliding properties and low outgassing. Recently BARplast also supported students of Montreal Polytechnique University to carry out a project aiming at 3D printing for objects found on the surface of the moon. The material used for insitu 3D printing was a mixture of regolith and AURUM ™.

    AURUM™ is a preferred choice coating material in electric insulation. Other common applications include bearings, thrust washers, electric wire coating and many more.

    Thus AURUM™ can be used in the most challenging and advanced applications in mechanical, electrical/electronics, chemicals, automobiles, space and aviation.

    Other polymers that take up places at the top of the pyramid are thermosets with even higher working temperatures are: the ‘Polyimide’ PI PLAVIS S and ‘Polyamideimide’ DEXNYL® PAI. BARplast LLC offers PLAVIS S series by Daelim Co., Ltd that surpasses the properties of the traditional thermopsetting PI grades in heat-resistance and mechanical properties. PLAVIS S portfolio of aromatic polyimides comes with improved resistance to heat, wear, mechanical abrasion, radiation, and chemicals. PAI, a result of converting a thermoplastic into a crosslinked thermoset has a continuous service temperature of 500 °F and can easily withstand up to-328 °F. DEXNYL® PAI is is characterized by high impact and wear resistance and exceptional mechanical properties. BARplast is a trusted supplier for PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) and several other high performance polymers including PAI, PEI, TPI and thermosets. Customers can choose from a wide range of Polymer powders, granules,semi-finished products such as sheets, foils, etc. and finished parts.

    Furthermore BARplast offers natural, recycled, colored and food grade PEEK along with PEEK and Polyimide Composite semi-finished and finished materials.

    Experts at BARplast advice the customers on the best suitable product after understanding their application. Being experienced in the industry of resins and polymers, customer service and satisfaction is at focus for BARplast.

  • AURUM ™ thermoplastic Polyimide
    We offer Mitsui Chemicals' thermoplastic Polyimide AURUM ™. this thermoplastic Polyimide (TPI) is the only Polyimide that has a glass transition temperature of 473 °F....

  • BARplast is the official distributor of AURUM®, thermoplastic Polyimide (TPI) in the United States. AURUM® is a brand of Mitsui Chemicals in Japan. Accessibility to this Ultra High Performance Polymer through BARplast will open new opportunities for this product that is positioned at the top of the polymer pyramid.

    The advantages of AURUM® are the extremely high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 473°F and its outstanding mechanical and chemical properties across a wide range of temperatures. Compounders and other converter that are able to melt-process polymers at elevated temperatures can use AURUM® to produce parts with superior thermal and mechanical properties. The granules are also available in reinforced and wear-friction grades.

    Typical applications are high-performance washers, ball-bearing cages, dry bearings, seals and gears - where excellent mechanical & tribological properties and temperature resistance are paramount. In addition, AURUM® is usable for advanced coatings, and clean-room applications due to low trace amounts of outgassing and metallic impurities. Used in aviation, automotive and other industries, AURUM® can be compounded and converted like any other thermoplastic.

  • PEEK as a high performance thermoplast loses only a few of its great properties during reprocessing; this holds true for granules as well as semi-finished parts. BARplast ensures to recycle PEEK in a quality assured way which fosters environmental as well as economical sustainability, thus helping it not to end up in an incineration plant.

    While reprocessing PEEK the residues are sorted and the PEEK-melt is filtered before granulation. Melt-filtration guarantees continuous high quality of BIEGLO’s R-PEEK 450G granules. Thus with R PEEK 450G BARplast brings a top HPP-thermoplast to the market at an economical prices which are about 50% less than that of virgin granules.
