Inventory savings: Rather than stocking several pre-colored materials, the molder could purchase and store natural resin that can become whatever color is required when combined with the proper masterbatch.

1 “Fillers and Reinforcements” in Plastics Additives, R. Graphite fillers, which can be natural flake or synthetic, provide electrical and thermal conductivity. Natural fibers also have lower abrasion than glass fibers, resulting in less wear on manufacturing equipment.

Carbon fiber increases modulus more than glass or natural fibers and a composite with 50% fiber will be stiffer than one containing 30%. The viscoelastic nature of thermoplastic materials also aids in the absorption of energy instead of reflecting or transmitting it as vibrational or sound waves. Conductive – Modify the inherent electrical insulative nature of plastics with additive technologies to render them antistatic, static dissipative, conductive, or to provide EMI shielding characteristics.
