Super engineering plastics films SUMILITE®FS

Details
SUMILITE® FS1000 SERIES are offered in a line-up of various highly functional engineering plastics films which Sumitomo Bakelite developed and manufacture by applying their long-cherished technologies of film & membrane formation thereto, successfully resulting in replacement of polyester and polyimide films in many fields. They have heat resistance, chemical resistance and other characteristics combined in their material designs.
Applications:
Thrust bearings of motors, component materials for friction, drive devices, space tapes for TAB., reinforcement of FPCs. optical device components, etc.

Co-extruded multilayered films and sheets for industrial uses SUMILITE®CEL

Details
The SUMILITE® CEL SERIES is multilayered, highly functional composite films which are designed to exhibit the feature of each component film. Besides packaging applications they are extensively used in industrial areas where they render many contributions to enhancement of product's functionality as well as streamlining manufacturing processes. We are prepared to respond to your questions or consultation at any time.
Applications:
Temporary use films in the process of flexible PCB manufacturing, lining films for cans, films & sheets for making
cards in compliance with non-PVC requirement, various auxiliary in-process temporarily used films and sheets, etc.

Engineering plastics molding compounds SUMIKON®FM

Details
PPS, polyamide, PC and other engineering plastics are used as core matrix resins and formulating specific fillers and also provide rigidity, electric and thermal conductivity and other unique properties. These thermoplastics molding compounds are used in a wide range of applications because of their improvement or modification according to the purposes.
Applications:
Optical pick-up parts, housings for electronic parts, electrical engineering parts such as mechanical, structural components of tape recorders, VCRs., and others.

Phenolic molding compounds SUMIKON®PM

Details
Phenolic molding compounds have well balanced properties of heat resistance, dimensional stability, electrical properties, mechanical properties and can be called a sort of engineering plastics. In order to cope with internationally expanding demand we have manufacturing plants in Japan, Singapore, U.S.A., Canada and Suzhou near Shanghai, China.
Applications:
metal substitutes of such automotive parts as carburetor housings, Brush holders, electric engineering parts such as breakers and magnet switches, motor parts such as commutators, electric parts such as switches and terminals, ash trays, kitchen goods, sundries, etc.

Diallylphthalate resin molding compounds SUMIKON®AM
