DSM's Stanyl Diablo PA46 delivers performance on the world's first high-heat plastic air intake manifold with integrated charge air cooler

Royal DSM, the global Life Sciences and Materials Sciences company, announces another major step forward in the use of thermoplastics in automotive high-heat zones. A recently-introduced hybrid sports car features the world's first high-heat plastic air intake manifold (AIM) with integrated charge air cooler (CAC) in Stanyl® Diablo, DSM's high temperature resistant polyamide 46.
The injection molded manifold operates at 220ºC and withstands pulses of high internal pressure. DSM worked closely together with a leading system supplier to develop the AIM/CAC combination, with DSM providing extensive development and processing support. The part is made in Stanyl Diablo OCD2100, which contains 40% glass fiber reinforcement as well as a specially developed and patented heat stabilizer. This grade has a continuous-use temperature of 220ºC and is able to withstand peak temperatures up to 250ºC.
The car incorporates a host of cutting-edge technologies that give it the performance of a top-level sports car but a carbon footprint lower than that of a compact city car. This is mainly thanks to its hybrid synchronous electric motor combined with a powerful turbocharged 1.5-L petrol engine.
The engine makes use of an extremely high turbo pressure that results in a very high internal air temperature. To cool down the air stream, the engine developer has made use of one of the latest developments in turbo charging systems: a liquid cooled charge air cooler (CAC) which is integrated into the air intake manifold and delivers higher efficiency than an equivalent air-to-air cooler.
Integrating the CAC into the AIM reduces the air duct length and improves engine responsiveness. This makes it possible to deliver higher performance while still meeting the latest gas emission requirements. However, integrating the cooler into the AIM drives the internal air temperature up to 220ºC in continuous use, with peaks up to 250ºC. This increase in pressure and temperature puts additional demands on the manifold material.
Integrated high temperature AIM/CACs have been produced before, but they have typically incorporated metal components for the manifold. The car maker wanted a plastics solution in order to minimize weight and maximize the design flexibility to enable a highly functional assembly to fit into a small space.
Stanyl Diablo polyamide 46 provides a weight reduction of up to 40% versus aluminum, and its optimized processing characteristics reduce system cost. It combines very good mechanical performance with outstanding high temperature resistance, retaining its high stiffness even under continuous-use temperatures of up to 220ºC.
The AIM/CAC is assembled from several moldings using hot gas welding. Thanks to Stanyl Diablo's best-in-class weld strength, the assembly is highly resistant to pressure pulsation loads. In addition, parts show good dimensional stability, and Stanyl Diablo OCD2100 produces parts with good surface finish, despite the high level of glass reinforcement.
"With national laws everywhere clamping down on engine emissions, and car makers focusing more and more on energy efficiency, we expect the use of plastics air intake manifolds with integrated charge air coolers to increase globally," says Kurt Maschke, Global Segment Manager Air/Fuel, at DSM. "Stanyl Diablo OCD2100 out-performed the competition in this project, with its combination of high temperature resistance and weld line performance after aging. DSM can expect strong business with this material in that type of application in the future."
Maschke continues: "With the latest generation of engines, it's a tough challenge to create air management systems that combine long-term high performance with low weight and top environmental credentials. So I am really happy that, thanks to Stanyl Diablo, we have been able to achieve the challenging targets together with our customer."
DSM is a leader in the development of high temperature resistant thermoplastics for automotive engines. Diablo technology, developed and patented by DSM, improves the long term temperature resistance of materials such as Stanyl polyamide that already have better high temperature performance than standard polyamides; and DSM is also using it to upgrade performance in its Akulon polyamide 6. DSM licenses Diablo technology to other high temperature thermoplastics suppliers too.
DSM regards this ground-breaking AIM/CAC - with its ability to cut car weight, improve performance and reduce environmental emissions - as an outstanding example of its "Bright Science for Brighter Living" philosophy. It says it will continue developing high performance materials for air and fuel systems in close cooperation with its customers. DSM expects temperature requirements in engine compartments to continue to increase, and believes it is possible to further improve its already outstanding technologies.
