Using a variety of metallic fibers and
particles, these compounds have densities
similar to traditional metals, while offering
design and processing flexibility because of the
polymer matrix, which can be extruded, molded,
calendered, or thermoformed into the final
desired shape .
Reactive
Reactive materials are commonly made from,
and are used to bond thermoset materials .
For most plastic
materials, the runner size will be dependent
upon the flow characteristics of the material.
