They also provided mold fill evaluations to evaluate the best injection parameter set up to process Therma-Tech in the respective mold. As a result, Elausa replaced Zamak with Therma-Tech thermoplastics, significantly reducing part weight from 38g to 9g. Due to the success of this project, the new, lighter heat sink made from Therma- Tech conductive thermoplastics has been rolled out across multiple vehicle models.

Runners • Full-round runners or a modified trapezoid runner are the best designs. Well depths approximately 1.5 times the diameter of the runner provide the best results. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Depending on the ratio of long glass to long carbon reinforcement selected, you are able to blend the best of both worlds – long glass fiber's toughness and economical cost with long carbon fiber's robust strength, stiffness and low density.    The long glass fiber reinforcement within the hybrid solutions offers a significant boost in toughness to the formulation, protecting your application from impact failure. Hybrid materials range from 20-50% total long glass + long carbon fiber content (by weight) reinforcing a variety of resin systems including polyamides, rigid thermoplastic polyurethanes and polypropylene.

These braces, traditionally made with steel, were initially fabricated from aluminum for a solid weight savings of 3 kg per vehicle over steel versions. For the brace, Avient's engineering team developed and analyzed three options: a unidirectional, hybrid carbon and glass fiber profile; a unidirectional carbon fiber profile; and finally, a profile made with both a unidirectional carbon fiber and a transverse engineered fabric, which had the advantage of minimizing any potential cracks from propagating. Engineers chose this third option because it met all of the technical requirements and had the best combination of properties.
