Coats has established itself as a global leader in the production of engineered yarns and has consistently entered new categories. Our state of the art carbon room is dedicated to developing high performance, light weight, heavy duty and fully customisable composite constructions. From carbon processing units to aramid converting lines to fibreglass processing equipment, Coats Speciality is able to commingle carbon and various thermoplastic fibres which will produce advanced thermoplastic parts for the wind, automotive, aerospace and sporting goods markets.

Synergex is a range of advanced composite fibres which provide custom solutions for complex applications such as commingling, twisting or coating and rewinding.

Synergex has the highest level of hybrid fibre integrity and performance. With its perfect harmony of strength, weight, and performance, Synergex will bring technical advantages to our customer’s final composite structure and will help to improve their production processes as well as overall productivity.

Coats Synergex is processed into fabric form using many technologies, including:

1. Unidirectional Tapes
2. Multi-axial Non Crimp Fabric Production
3. Broad Loom Weaving
4. Narrow Loom Weaving
5. Hollow Braiding
6. Warp Knitting
7. Continuous Pipe Winding
8. TFP (Tailored Fibre Placement)

Synergex is typically used to mould parts for industries, including:

1. Automotive
2. Sportartikel
3. Windenergie
4. Luft- und Raumfahrt
5. RTP (Verstärkte Thermoplastische Rohre)

Thermoplastic prepregs have advantages over the more common thermoset composite material in terms of higher impact resistance, lower moulding cycle times and the flexibility to mould small parts of different shapes. Synergex composite fibre technology intimately commingles carbon reinforcement fibres with thermoplastic yarns like Nylon, PET, PEEK, PP, PPS and UHMWPE, which produces a single mixed roving of uniform dispersion across its cross section. This unique technique minimizes filamentation of the reinforcement fibre and ensures parallel alignment of the fibre mix as well as a homogenous distribution resulting in an excellent consolidation.

Reinforcement Fibre Package Sizes

Additional package sizes are available upon request.

Thermoplastic Yarn Options

Reinforcement fibres can be customized to meet end use application demands by twisting one or more fibre types together. The revolutionized technology of Synergex enables us to make a stronger, more controlled composite fibre by twisting 1-5 ply constructions of Carbon, Para-aramid and Fibreglass which can be used to create fabrics containing unique hybrid properties.

Twisted Combinations:

Coats offers a range of water based coatings that can be applied to Synergex. All are friendly to the environment and help to improve abrasion resistance, adhesion levels and durability.

Coatings include:

1. Adhesion Promoters
2. Anti-wick
3. Lube
4. Anti-stat

Winding Services

Manufacturing processes can be optimized through Coats converting services. A great way to eliminate scrap, Coats can wind put-ups to customer specifications easily and quickly.
