Advanced Composites , Engineered Polymer Formulations | Lightweighting , Metal Replacement , Transportation Sheet metal restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs request different attachment configurations for the part,” Spiess explained. So it becomes extremely time consuming to design and fabricate multiple variations in metal.”

Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified Formulations PROCESSING GUIDE 2 Gravi-Tech GRAVI-TECH™ Density Modified Formulations Gravi-Tech™ polymer-metal composites are high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-based alternatives to lead and other traditional metals. These materials have been formulated using select metallic fillers and engineered thermoplastic resins to have densities similar to actual metals, while also providing the design flexibility and processing ease of conventional thermoplastics.
