The concentrate also included the required color for the manufacturer’s branding and an additive for UV protection.

PRODUCT BULLETIN Silcosperse™ LM Laser Marking Additive Dispersions Silcosperse™ Laser Marking additives are laser absorbing silicone dispersions that use UV, YAG or fiber laser technologies.

THE IMPACT • FLEXIBILITY through wide range of color options • PROTECTION of product through antimicrobial technology • SPEED to MARKET through supplier expertise • COST REDUCTION through simplified processing • CONSISTENT performance through all-inclusive, one step masterbatch Each Smartbatch solution is custom formulated to incorporate color, antimicrobial technology and UV stability in one material, simplifying them manufacturing process and delivering consistent performance

They also add important characteristics, such as SWELLCOAT® water-blocking, water repellence, adhe- sion, color, and wear and UV-resistance to these and many other applications.

In addition to their use in standalone applications, TPEs can be overmolded onto a rigid plastic grip in an injection molding process to create a distinctive, cushioned feel without compromising the stiffness and strength of the underlying structure. When overmolded, GLS TPEs bond permanently and virtually seamlessly to many different plastic substrates, including polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide (nylon) and polystyrene (PS).

FRP pultrusions offer several advantages over traditional materials, like metals, ceramics, and unreinforced plastics. Pultruded composites offer a number of advantages over traditional metals and plastics.
