Our own products

EHLcom-EL

We are able to offer electrically conductive compounds of our EHLcom-types based on different polymers such as PA, PP, PE, POM and many more.

Your advantages
• electrically conductive
• dissipative
• permanently antistatic

EHLcom-EMI

Due to new technologies more and more electronic devices are required. A challenge is to install all electronic equipment in the available room, because of the electromagnetic interference (EMI). The electromagnetic interference describes electronic devices which are free from interference with the environment.
For this purpose, we have developed EHLcom EMI.

Your advantages
• protection / isolation directly after injection moulding process
• no secondary coating required
• no scratches, no peel-off, independent from variation in thickness of coating layer
• high electrical conductivity
• protection against electrostatic discharging through the entire material
(not only the coated surface)
• integration of additional features possible
• high quality protection / isolation against EMI
• design variability + much lighter than metal (weight)

EHLcom-TM

radiation crosslinking thermoplastics Plastic optimized by radiation crosslinking gives inexpensive commodity plastics and technical plastics the mechanical, thermal and chemical properties of high-performance plastics. The energyrich beta or gamma rays trigger chemical reactions in plastics, which result in a ‘crosslinking‘ reaction of molecules. A network, which is comparable to the vulcanization of rubbers is formed.

Your advantages
• improved mechanical properties
• improved temperature properties
• improved tribological properties
• improved chemical resistance

EHLcom-GR

Sliding friction compounds for lifetime extension of mechanically stressed parts without the addition of lubricants.

Your advantages
• on the basis of diverse polymers
• for improved tribological (sliding friction) properties
• reduction of abrasion
• increase of component lifetime
• low noise emission
• improved „dry-running“ properties
• weight reduction

The characterictics of our EHLcom products are determined by the basic material and the different kinds and quality of fillers.

Fillers:

• PTFE – by friction, a film which reduces abrasion is generated
• Aramid fibre – good sliding friction & wear-resistant
• Graphite – good sliding friction properties resistant to environmental conditions – ex. Water
• Molybdenum sulphide – good sliding friction in combination with PA & POM
• Silicone oil – by friction a film which reduces abrasion is generated & also resulting in
low noise emission and reduction of “squeaks“
• Cabon fibre – increases strength & rigidity – electrically conductive

It is also possible to combine fillers for improved properties.

EHLcom-MD – Detectable Compounds for usage in food sector

One risk in food production is contamination with foreign objects. More and more parts in the production are made of plastics, e.g. boxes, trays, machine components, tools and many more. We developed EHLcom-MD to minimise food contamination.

Your advantages
• on the basis of diverse polymers
• for magnetic – metal detectable – x ray properties
• filler on the basis of stainless steel
• filler content < 20% – for improved mechanical properties
• basic colour: grey
• dyeing in diverse colours for optical detection in food
• FDA Compliant for food contact articles

EHLcom-IQ – Compounds, industry qualities (IQ), reprocessed material

The growing requirements concerning compounds and reprocessed material in accordance with harmful substances guidelines for example RoHS and REACH has confronted ERG EHL Rohstoff GmbH with the necessity for higher standards in quality control. Therefore, pre-material is checked by means of special x-ray devices for halogen content as well as RoHS conformity. As a result we can guarantee our customers that our compounds and IQ are halogen free, free from heavy metal and the following controllable components for example: cadmium, bromine, lead, mercury / quicksilver, chromium / chrome, etc.
