Toyota Motor Corporation recently released the new Crown fuel cell vehicle, a collaboration between Toyota Motor Corporation and Ube Corporation. Toyota Motor Corporation President Masato Ihara announced that polyamide (nylon) 6 resin “UBE” will be used for lining high-pressure hydrogen tanks for fuel cell vehicles.
NYLON™ 1218IU” (hereinafter referred to as “1218IU”) has been developed by Masato Izuhara (hereinafter referred to as “UBE”). MIRAI is the second product to use UBE
Nylon 6 resin for Toyota fuel cell passenger cars.

1218IU is used as the innermost component (lining) of the high-pressure hydrogen tank installed in Crown fuel cell vehicles. It has passed strict requirements as a resin lining material that prevents hydrogen gas from leaking to the outside. In addition to the excellent hydrogen permeation resistance of nylon 6 resin, it also exhibits extremely excellent mechanical properties, such as durability against sudden changes in tank temperature caused by hydrogen charging and release and impact resistance in low-temperature environments.

UBE began manufacturing and selling nylon 6 resin in 1959, with a global polymerization capacity of 198,000 tons, one of the largest polymerization capacities in the world. In recent years, in response to increasingly complex market demands, we have expanded our global footprint as an engineering plastics composites manufacturer, with total composites production capacity in four regions: Japan, Asia, Europe and North America.
53,000
tons, strong product development capabilities, and our solution-providing business based on stable quality has been highly praised. We will continue to increase our engineering plastic composite production capacity and focus on developing products that meet the characteristics required for the diversification of automotive parts.
