Langsheng will develop towards the road of automotive materials
when many manufacturers choose tensile testing machines, recently, Dr. Bai Weining, a member of Langsheng's management board, was convinced that in order to promote sustainable, resource-saving and environment-friendly motorization worldwide, customized chemical raw materials and technologies are essential. "Chemical materials are the key to reducing vehicle weight and improving efficiency. Because of this, LANXESS is systematically developing high-tech plastics for lightweight structures and high-performance rubber products with low rolling resistance and fuel saving," Bai Weining said before the opening of the 65th Frankfurt International Automobile Exhibition (IAA)

in the field of automotive lightweight structure development, LANXESS is a partner with a better reputation for real-time data collection of working parameters such as friction force, impact force, temperature, load, speed, wear rate and tribological characteristic parameters in the experiment. "Langsheng's high-performance thermoplastic Duli natvar factory in China can be widely used in various applications of the automotive industry for the global medical device market, Durethan, pocan and tepex. These applications alone can reduce the vehicle weight by 50 kg, thereby reducing fuel consumption by 4% and carbon dioxide emissions per 100 kilometers by 0.5 kg," Bai Weining added. One of Langsheng's innovations in the field of lightweight structure is the application of new dulidon polyamide 6 in the fuel tank lining of natural gas vehicles. Bai Weining said: "the weight of the plastic fuel tank made in this way is only one quarter of that of the solid steel fuel tank, which means that the total weight of the vehicle is reduced by 7%."
future trend of lightweight structures: composites
tepex continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites of bond laminates, a subsidiary of LANXESS group, have a bright future in the field of lightweight structures. "Only a few thermoplastic manufacturers in the world can provide compounds and high-performance composites, and also have the expertise to mass produce lightweight components. Langsheng is one of them," said Bai Weining. In many cases, tepex is a high-performance and economical substitute for carbon fiber reinforced thermosetting lightweight materials. Potential application fields that can directly adopt tepex hybrid technology in mass production include automobile front end, automobile seat, seat beam, pedal and airbag shell
high tech rubber products for reducing tire rolling resistance
another specialty of LANXESS in the field of "green" motorization is high-performance rubber products for reducing tire rolling resistance. "Our rubber products can reduce the rolling resistance of tires, thereby reducing fuel consumption by 5-7% and reducing carbon dioxide emissions. These green tires have been used in cars and have made a significant contribution to environmental protection," Bai Weining said. LANXESS has developed a concept tire with its rubber products and additives, which is one of the first products in the world to obtain the AA level certification of the EU tire labeling law
