At LANXESS, we see new, environmentally friendly forms of mobility as a future-oriented growth segment for our Durethan® polyamides, Pocan® polybutylene terephthalates (PBTs) and Tepex® thermoplastics composites. This is based on our many years of experience and development expertise pertaining to plastic components for the automotive, electrical and electronic industries. Our strong knowledge and innovative mindset drives our ability to support the most recent solutions when it comes to future mobility.
NEW MOBILITY SOLUTIONS AND APPLICATIONS
NEW MOBILITY IS NOT JUST HYPE FOR LANXESS
*Source: Statista.de
We master a wide range of high-performance polymers for demanding applications. The materials we are developing for new forms of mobility are geared to a number of key areas, in particular electrification of the powertrain for vehicles both with and without a driver and development of the necessary infrastructures and logistics. We are also working on new lightweight materials and technologies, including to help increase the range of electric vehicles. Our lightweight materials play an important role in the vehicle weight improving the reach of vehicles and making them safer.
With 36,000 charging stations, the amount in Germany will enormously increase until 2020. And even the market volume for autonomous driving systems will double until 2025. The worldwide production of electric vehicles will increase by about 4,3 million until 2025.
Objectives include
Extending the range of batteries
Our materials could also be used in applications such as radar systems to avoid collisions or adaptive cruise control systems.
