Materials for More Efficient Internal Combustion Engines
As the automotive industry shifts toward hybrid vehicles and fully electric vehicles, the internal combustion engine (ICE) remains the most trusted propulsion system in the market. The performance and enhancement demands for internal combustion engines must continue to adapt while the industry transitions into future trends. From engine downsizing for weight optimization to reducing emissions, the search for more efficient internal combustion engines leads manufacturers to seek high-quality materials that meet increasingly stringent industry demands and regulations.
Syensqo's outstanding materials empower manufacturers to meet the complex requirements of the market while developing advanced, dynamic solutions to define the future of automotive. Our trusted product portfolio addresses pressing concerns to maximize safety, intelligent air control, thermal management, powertrain efficiency, and more.
Our Solutions for Internal Combustion Engine Applications
Air Management
Exhaust and air management solutions face many challenges with electrical actuation. For this reason, manufacturers seek products such as Syensqo’s Torlon® PAI and KetaSpire® PEEK for high-quality performance in high-temperature environments and fatigue resistance.
Electrical and Electronic Systems
Electrical and electronic systems encompass many critical components within internal combustion engines. From fuses and switches to connectors and electrical actuators, Syensqo's line of Amodel® solutions are designed to withstand harsh chemical and operational environments while maintaining outstanding dimensional stability.
Fuel Systems
As one of the vital components of internal combustion engines, fuel systems are critical in the longevity and sustainability of vehicles. From resistance to harsh conditions and fuels to low shell after moisture exposure, Syensqo provides products such as Ryton® PPS and Amodel® PPA to improve the dimensional stability and chemical resistance of ICE fuel systems.
Lubrication
Lubrication in internal combustion engines helps reduce friction and wear among moving parts to keep components functional. Fomblin® PFPE sustainable lubricants provide excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents while remaining non-reactive to metal, plastics, elastomers, and rubber parts.
Thermal Management
Market trends for internal combustion engines favor downsizing as a means to achieve lower fuel consumption. Electronic thermostats and thermal management modules, which ensure the effective control of engine temperatures, benefit from Amodel® PPA and Ryton® PPS’ reliability in harsh thermal conditions.
