Controlled dispersion
and high-quality carbon black materials enable you
to achieve optimal performance for high-temperature
extrusion and molding processes.
Carbon/Graphite Fiber compounds can help you
increase the mechanical strength of your injection
molded parts with increased flex modulus.
Titanate Fiber Compounds can increase mechanical
strength while gaining chemical inertness and
excellent cryogenic impact resistance.

LONG GLASS FIBER SURFACE
AESTHETICS
Good surface cosmetics with glass fiber
reinforced nylons are difficult to obtain
without high mold temperatures that
lengthen cycle times.
Complēt moisture
resistant nylons reinforced with long glass
fiber produce a smooth, fiber-free finish
without special processing to give molded
components a high-quality appearance.
