Smarter Materials™ High Performance Thermoplastics: eBook Learn about high-performance thermoplastics that surpass commodity and engineering resins

Our polymer solutions and engineering materials include colorants for identification and differentiation, additives for added properties and functionalities, and thermoplastics that can withstand harsh chemicals and reagents. Make your lab and POCT in vitro diagnostic devices safe, accurate and easy to use with healthcare dedicated color and additive polymer solutions and thermoplastics.

Unlike metal, thermoplastics can also be molded into complex shapes that fit tight spaces. With thermoplastic parts, there is rarely a need for secondary processing steps such as coating, welding, drilling or painting.
