Xenia will bring to market a new series of short carbon-fiber filled PP thermoplastic composite grades under the XECARB® 11 brand.

In occasion of MECSPE 2019, Xenia will bring to market a new series of short carbon-fiber filled PP thermoplastic composite grades under the XECARB® 11 brand.

After over a year of testing and improvements, XECARB® 11 final result represents the ideal solution for a wide range of applications in chemical, industrial and sport system fields which require a high modulus to density ratio.

Due to their carbon fiber reinforcement, the new compounds are electrically conductive. They additionally present a tensile strength at break up to 115 MPa, a great chemical resistance, higher heat deflection temperature, better dimensional stability and reduced post shrinkage, together with a better hardness of the surface and an excellent resistance to UV rays.

 

Xenia is an Italian compounding company, specialized in engineering and production of innovative polymer based materials for the most advanced and challenging industries.

The company, located in Vicenza, Italy incorporates an engineering team, which helps customers to develop high-tech solutions with a research and development department dedicated to product innovation.
