Complēt™ long carbon fiber reinforced ETPU composite reduced weight 33% and performance analysis services confirmed metal-to-thermoplastic conversion success Injection molded Complēt™ long carbon fiber reinforced nylon composite delivered high stiffness and low weight while simplifying manufacturing

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites are prized for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness, durability, and resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and environmental exposures. Their light weight makes them easier to install in challenging areas, such as mountainous terrain, and during emergency situations such as extreme weather events and natural disasters.

Lightweighting involves removing weight without sacrificing strength or performance, which in turn, raises fuel efficiency and reduces Complēt™ long fiber-reinforced structural composites replace aluminum in light aircraft seats and spacers, resulting in a 40 percent weight reduction. Hammerhead™ marine composite panels reduce weight and increase durability versus wood in structural boat-building components, such as stringers and subfloors.

This created an opportunity for our interns to gain real-world, professional experience remotely. Non-toxic and heavy-metal-free ingredients and biodegradable carrier resins. The Solution This customer used Polystrand™ continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) tapes and laminates in the trailer space of their heavy truck applications.
