Chemical & Thermal Resistance
Americhem Engineered Compounds offers Energy technologies in Nylon, PPS and aromatic ketone compounds with glass fiber, carbon fiber, and PTFE for elevated temperature and down hole and compressor plate applications. Our unbiased approach to resin selection, coupled with our extensive technology portfolio of performance additives, provides you unlimited potential.
Chemical pumps and other fluid handling devices come in a variety of sizes, capacities and types. For the right market segment, thermoplastic compounds can offer the right balance of chemical resistance, physical strength, wear resistance, self-lubrication, and cost-effectiveness. As well, depending on the fluid, they can be superior to metals in corrosive environments.

How InStruc® and InLube™ Can Help You
Americhem’s glass and carbon fiber reinforced technologies, InStruc®, and our internally lubricated compounds can help you achieve significant improvements in:
ENERGY
Our unbiased approach to resin and filler selection, coupled with our extensive technology portfolio of performance additives, provides you with virtually unlimited possibilities.
InStruc® Structurally Reinforced Compounds
Whether you are working with high temperatures, high load or just need a wear resistant plastic to boost the durability of your products, Americhem’s glass and carbon fiber reinforced technologies can help you achieve significant improvements.
InLube™ Internally Lubricated Compounds
Over time, parts and components can see a lot of wear in areas where plastic wears on plastic, or plastic wears on metal, causing performance issues, costly warranty claims and premature failure of your products. Americhem can help you protect your products with PTFE, silicone, MoS2 and graphite internally lubricated compounds that are custom designed to help you.
