Polymer Industry Overview Polymers are a class of organic materials that are generally produced by converting natural gas or crude oil derivatives into monomers, such as ethylene, propylene, vinyl chloride and styrene. Natural gas and raw materials costs represent a substantial part of our manufacturing costs. Sheboygan Falls, Plants) 16.

Utilizing existing pipe systems enables the transition from natural gas to hydrogen delivery quickly and economically. PlastiComp™ then took the carbon tows and formed a high-strength tape coated with an adhesion promoting layer, a critical component of the renewal system.

Available in masterbatch pellets, powder form or liquid, they utilize endothermic, exothermic or an endothermic/ exothermic blend of chemistries to fit the required applications. They are commonly used for: • Weight reduction/cost savings • Sink mark removal • Shrinkage and warpage reduction • Nucleation • Assisting direct gas foaming NOTE: Low gas yield products are optimized for assisting direct gas injection, nucleation, warpage reduction and sink mark removal. Chemistries and gas initiation temperatures are available for a wide range of resins.

The plant, which is already fully operational, becomes the fourth global source for MEVOPUR™ polymer solutions, which are produced under carefully controlled conditions to support more reliable compliance with regulations governing medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging. ISO 13485 certification is the culmination of two years’ work to create a completely segregated, dedicated healthcare operation similar to other MEVOPUR plants.
