Reduces Weight and Density Enhanced foam activity generates additional weight reduction compared to conventional CFAs Excelite™ IM Chemical Foaming Additives improved cycle time and weight reduction

With a high strength-to-weight ratio, Complēt REC long fiber composites can be deployed as a sustainable alternative to metals to obtain valuable weight reductions.     Provides structural performance that can go head-to-head with metals at a fraction of the weight Compare the strength, toughness and weight of long fiber thermoplastics against other materials

Complēt™ long carbon fiber reinforced nylon composite replaced aluminum to provide better fatigue resistance and reduce weight Complēt™ long carbon fiber reinforced nylon composite replaced metal steering column supports and lowered weight by 50% Optimizing Part Design with Thermoplastic Composite Injection Overmolding: How localized reinforcement can reduce weight and improve performance

Complēt™ long glass fiber reinforced nylon composite supports the weight of a 25-pound motor without creep while being lower in weight and less costly to produce Complēt™ long carbon fiber reinforced PES composite reduced weight 40% and met FAA requirements for flammability and survivability Excelite™ IM Chemical Foaming Additives improved cycle time and weight reduction

Using these composites as a metal replacement also fosters significant weight reductions along with the time and cost savings benefits of single-step injection molding.   Formulations are available globally in a standard black color at typical weight percentages of long glass fiber, long carbon fiber, or hybrid combinations. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

For the American market, Dyneema® fiber – with its unrivaled strength-to-weight ratio – is manufactured in Greenville, North Carolina. Its unrivaled ballistic stopping power and ultra-low weight make it the ideal solution, without intentionally added PFAS, for crafting high-performance armor that protects those who protect us. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass, and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint
