Bespoke specialties & blends With its many variations, the Badalac ABS product group is already successfully positioned on the market. It includes specialties such as heatproof types with an increased Vicat softening temperature, improved flowing properties, increased toughness, fibre glass reinforcement and flame retardant adjustments. As for all Bada products, coloured ABS types are available on request, even in small batch sizes. A series of ABS-based blends can also be supplied, e.g. ABS/PA and ABS/PC blends.

The Badalon product line consists of thermoplastics based on polycarbonate. Badalon stands out for its excellent almost glassy transparency in combination with high impact resistance. Due to its amorphous character, Badalon PC shows extremely low shrinkage, meaning that parts made from Badalon PC have such a high dimensional accuracy and stability that even extremely tight tolerances can be met. We can provide both transparent colours in any colour shade and material types dyed with opaque colours. In addition to mechanical, optical and dimensional advantages, Badalon PC is a very good electrical isolator, which opens up a broad range of applications in the electrical industry, in addition to applications in mechanical engineering, the automotive industry, or domestic applications.

premium properties for universal implementation options Badamid is a product group in its own right. These thermoplastic construction materials based on polyamide (PA6, PA66, PA66/6, PA6/6T, PPA, PA9T, PA610, PA612, PA12) feature outstanding, versatile properties. Besides their exceptional mechanical strength and high thermal resistance, polyamides also demonstrate good toughness at low temperatures and favourable friction and abrasion behaviour. Badamid has proven its worth in a variety of technical sectors, e.g. for machine elements, in the electrical, electronic and automobile industry and for construction, furniture-making and leisure applications. Badamid can be further processed by all conventional moulding processes. Advanced modifications to customer specification in respect of reinforcement, toughness, ease of processing, flammability and colour can be realized with excellent results.

Partly crosslinked EPDM/PP blends for versatile implementation Our product spectrum of thermoplastic elastomers is rounded off by a wide range of partly crosslinked EPDM/PP blends. Badaprene TPVs offer excellent qualities such as chemical resistance, high weather, UV and ozone proofness and good mechanical characteristics. Badaprene TPV can be varied by a gamut of properties, e.g. in Shore hardness (from 35A to 65D), processing properties, surface finish and colour. This variety assures a wide range of applications in the automobile, engineering, electronics, building and leisure industries.

PP in Perfection Today, polypropylene is a material we cannot do without. However, its versatile fields of application make varying demands on this plastic. The Badaprop product line offers the adequate PP for almost every application. Badaprop can be tailor-made to your requirements - no matter if you need a homopolymer or a copolymer, with optimized flow properties, custom coloured, provided with different reinforcements, or impact modified.

High Tech Plastics at their Best The Badatech HT product line forms the top of the plastics pyramid and unites all common high temperature polymers in one product group. With regard to compounds and properties of Badatech HT, we offer our usual versatile range of variations.

High-performance compounds The Badatron PPS product line comprises high-performance compounds based on polyphenylene sulfide. Glass fibre reinforced Badatron PPS is well suited for parts exposed to aggressive media and extreme thermal stress due to its extremely high heat distortion temperatures beyond 250°C. In addition, Badatron PPS is the ideal material for all precision parts due to its high dimensional stability. Filler contents up to 50% ensure highest rigidity and strength, making Badatron PPS a weight-saving alternative to metal for numerous applications. Badatron PPS shows inherent flame resistance and achieves flame class V-0 pursuant to UL94, without the addition of fire protection agents.

Band Heaters are an ideal heating for general cylindrical heating tasks. They are especially suitable for injection moulding machines and tools, for extrusion machines and tools, for Hot Runner tools, for transferring tubes with bitumen processing, for bag sealers, for filling devices (food industry), for special purpose machinery manufacture, for tube tools, for coating devices, for blow moulding technology, for sleeve cut-outs and for rubber processing. They are proven as reliable OEM equipment for several common machinery types.

A Barcamp is a participatory conference where participants from business, science, and society can contribute their ideas, questions, and suggestions. Our Barcamps each have an overarching theme, on which input is provided at the beginning. The subsequent program is open and depends on the participants. The goal of the Barcamps is to foster intensive exchange between the various stakeholders. After the Barcamp, we aim to develop the ideas together.

We manufacture barrels in high wear and corrosion resistent quality from Ø 12 – 200 mm, up to a length of 5000 mm. The barrels tasks are static. They have to cope with high levels of pressure and tension when thermally loaded. Borehole surfaces must resist wear and corrosion caused by the processed plastics. The barrel feeding zone can be optimised for each individual application. Our production includes the manufacture of thermoplastic, extrusion, thermoset, silicone and elastomer barrels in the optimal qualities. + Ø 12 – 200 mm + Length up to 5000 mm + High wear resistant + Corrosion resistant + Optimised feedingzone + Individual designs

BASE BLACK: flexible adjustment and permanently available With the new BASE BLACK masterbatch for polypropylene (PP), GRAFE, Blankenhain, has developed an efficient alternative for the most common automotive black shades, which, in addition to its permanent availability - sample quantities are shipped the same day for production tests - also offers a significantly better price level compared to an OEM direct color. In addition, the masterbatch can also be flexibly adjusted. "Our BASE BLACK masterbatch already achieves excellent color values at standard parameters in the production process, which are within the OEM tolerance and only deviate slightly from the direct colors," reports Lars Schulze, Head of Colour Development and Material Sciences, referring to minimal differences when comparing L*a*b* color values at Audi/VW, Daimler, Renault/Dacia, Tesla or BMW, for example. "The development is used for rapid initial sampling and can be brought to the target through process optimization," he adds. "We are happy to support our customers in the final optimization step to the perfect color because BASE BLACK can already be adjusted in the production process by minimal parameter shifts - for example, in dosage, processing temperature, or pressure," explains Johannes Grau, Strategic Accounts Mobility Solutions. "Our product represents an alternative to the otherwise usual detailed settings that are adjusted to the polymer and component," he adds. In addition, it could also reduce warehousing costs.
