MITSUI CHEMICALS EUROPE GMBH
Mitsui Chemicals Europe GmbH is the European subsidiary of the Mitsui Chemicals Group, which is a global chemical manufacturer and supplier of value added specialty chemicals, plastics and materials for the mobility, healthcare, packaging, agricultural, construction, semiconductor and electronics market.
Current composite developments from Mitsui Chemicals focus on unidirectional reinforced thermoplastic tapes based on carbon fibers and polypropylene (TAFNEX™ CF-PP UD) with specially developed fiber bonding technology. This material combination shows on the one hand high stiffness and strength values at low density due to the carbon fiber properties, on the other hand very good water resistance and excellent processability due to the use of polypropylene as matrix material.
At DroneX 2025, a full-scale drone demonstrator will be presented, showcasing the various possibilities for drone components (blades, cover, frame, arms, legs) using TAFNEX™ material and ready for large-scale scalability options.

-
TAFNEX™ drone legs offer stability, light weight, and durability. Injection molding allows easy integration and assembly of connecting parts for a streamlined structure.
-
The drone cover protects internal parts, enhances durability, and shields against the elements, all while adding a stylish forged carbon look and maintaining the drone’s lightweight design.
-
The drone arm supports structure, reduces vibrations, and enables mounting of components, enhancing stability, durability, and easy maintenance for optimal drone performance.
-
The drone monocoque frame is a crucial structural shell, protecting vital electronics, reducing weight, and enhancing durability and maintenance, leading to improved flight stability and performance.
-
Blades made from TAFNEX™ Sandwich Panels provide significant benefits over traditional thermoset carbon composite blades. The foam core and carbon fiber composite skin are integrated together.
