Performance advantages: • High dielectric strength: composite material is custom formulated to optimize electrical properties resulting in exceptional insulation • Lightweight: insulators are up to 80% lighter than porcelain and utility poles are more than 50% lighter than wood equivalents • High strength: high tensile, compressive, flexural and inter-laminar shear strength to support various design configurations and line loads • Resilient: deflect and return to original shape for structural damping to minimize damages and outages • Durable: insulators are durable and shatter resistant vs. ceramic and glass; composite utility poles are UV corrosion resistant for a long service life Arrestors Electrical Transmission & Distribution Applications COMPONENT DESCRIPTION SIZES Insulators for transmission and distribution Suspension insulators Epoxy/glass fiber rods 0.625" to 1.25" diameter Line post and station post insulators Epoxy/glass fiber rods 1.50" to 4.74" diameter Arresters Cage type Polyester or vinyl ester/glass fiber rods 0.125" to 0.50" diameter Custom tubular Polyester, vinyl ester or epoxy/ glass fiber custom shapes 2.0" to 6.0" envelope size Pole line construction Conductor standoff and equipment support arms Polyester/glass fiber rods 1.50" to 2.00" diameter Guy strain insulators Polyester/glass fiber rods 0.50" to 0.812" diameter Cross arms Tangent and deadend, support braces Polyester/glass fiber rectangular tubes 3.62" x 4.62" and 4.0" x 6.0" rectangular Utility poles GridCore™ Composite Utility Poles Polyester/glass fiber hollow custom tubes 12" to 14" diameter, typical lengths from 35' to 75' Pole line construction, cross arms, rods, and utility poles feature an integral fabric surfacing veil for long-term weather resistance and retention of properties.

TPE-2 TPE-2 materials are opaque and their base chemistries are different from TPE-1. Figure 3 shows the capillary viscosity of TPE-1 and TPE-2 at 200oC. These results confirm that TPE-1 and TPE-2B are truly the “universal overmolding TPEs.”

Upjacketing is available for pultruded composite rods, and is ideal for loose tube cable designs.

Available in small or large volume quantities, these colorants are suitable for a range of applications including insulation, film, tubing and profile shapes, wire and cable jacketing, and injection molded parts.

Colorant Chromatics PVDF Processing Aids can be used for wire and cable, tube, pipe, and filament extrusion applications, among others.

Many totes, or intermediate bulk containers (IBC), are made with rigid metal or polyethylene plastic caged within steel tubing.
