Material selection is a crucial step in any new product development project, but that is just the beginning. However, to ensure your material performs as intended, there are several technical considerations to examine. This involves considerations with industrial design, material selection, simulation results, and optimization of the overall design as you learn to leverage the unique capabilities of the LFT material.

Our Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio includes flame retardant solutions as additive concentrates which are incorporated into the polymer during the spin-dyeing process. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Using conventional CFA ingredients, a special conditioning process was used to prepare the raw material for optimal foaming performance upon polymer interaction.

This portfolio includes high-temperature materials for elevated service temperature environments, high-modulus/structural materials for load-bearing and high-strength applications, and flame-retardant products. Cold Slug Wells • Place these wells at the base of the sprue to capture the cold material first emerging from the nozzle Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
