Specialty materials solutions provider Trinseo announced a distribution agreement with Omya, a producer of industrial minerals and a global distributor of specialty resins.
Under the terms of the agreement, Omya will supply high-quality ABS and PC/ABS resins to Trinseo automotive and mobility customers in North America from February 1, 2023. These materials are manufactured under Trinseo’s brand MAGNUM™ ABS
Available in Resins and PULSE PC/ABS Resins.
Trinseo’s MAGNUM™ ABS resin stands out in the market through continuous large-scale polymerization manufacturing technology.
Omiya claims that ABS produced using this technology is purer, cleaner and superior compared to emulsion ABS because the continuous process results in a more consistent, stable and reliable product.
In addition, Omiya believes that large-scale polymerization techniques produce resins with a highly consistent white base color, resulting in cost-effective self-coloring resins because fewer pigments are required. According to Trinseo, PULSE
PC/ABS resins offer an ideal combination of mechanical, thermal and rheological properties for high performance interior and exterior applications. They are approved for many premium OEMs
specifications and offers strong technical characteristics such as low density, low emissions and high impact strength.
