Sumitomo Chemical's super engineering plastics <plant expansion underway>
Active in 5G device design and widely contributes to product miniaturization and weight reduction. Strengthening LCP production capacity with plant expansion.
Our company, which handles super engineering plastics, is currently expanding the plant at our Ehime factory to increase production capacity for the liquid crystal polymer "Sumika Super LCP," which combines high heat resistance and ease of processing. (Completion is scheduled for around summer 2023.) In response to the rapid expansion of LCP demand due to the full-scale commercialization of 5G and the acceleration and increased capacity of data communication, as well as the spread of electric vehicles and the development of the mobility sector, we are also considering further enhancements. 【Features of Liquid Crystal Polymer "Sumika Super LCP"】 ■ Proven performance in the electrical and electronic fields, such as relays and connectors, leveraging flowability and heat resistance. ■ Gaining attention from the automotive industry due to high dimensional stability and low noise. ■ Capable of molding films, fibers, and foams through extrusion and casting. *We also offer a variety of other super engineering plastic products. For more details on our products, please refer to the materials available for "PDF download." Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.
