Sorona® MT3401 NC010 is a medium toughened polytrimethylene terephthalate resin containing 29% renewably sourced ingredients by weight. It was initially coded SE38001.
DuPont™ Sorona® EP thermoplastic polymers contain between 20% and 37% renewably sourced material (by weight) derived from corn. The new material exhibits performance and molding characteristics similar to high-performance PBT (polybutylene terephthalate).
In addition to good strength and stiffness, early tests indicate improved surface appearance, lower warpage, and good dimensional stability, making it very attractive in a range of uses for automotive parts and components, electrical and electronics systems as well as industrial and consumer products.
