The engineers tested the material for shear resistance based on the thickness of the seal. They then modified the material to offer enough heat resistance so it could be overmolded onto polypropylene, the underlying material that provides the gaskets’ rigidity.  The material also can be used in tools originally constructed for halogenated materials with no rework required.

What materials have traditionally been used for ballistic protection? Advanced composite ballistic panels offer a number of benefits over traditional materials: Composite materials can absorb and retain projectiles to avoid potentially hazardous ricochet.

Design and materials are intrinsically connected in the best products. Materials are the essential building blocks of all products. Equal parts science and art, intrinsic design can transform challenges into change faster and more elegantly than if materials were an afterthought.

PRNewswire/ -- PolyOne has announced it will unveil Hammerhead™ Marine Composite Panels at the Composites and Advanced Materials Expo (CAMX) in president, Specialty Engineered Materials, NYSE: POL) is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

Selecting the wrong material can lead to stress cracking in the device housing within weeks of field use.  After extensive material evaluation, the UltraMIST R&D team identified Resilience HC from PolyOne as a potential solution for their new device. They gave us immediate access to material, engineering, and processing expertise, making our converter comfortable with molding rigid vinyl.

Adding this line also increases PolyOne’s global footprint for consistent material formulations in all global regions. The company expanded manufacturing capability to include specialty engineered materials last year. PolyOne Corporation, with 2017 revenues of $3.2 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

These materials will be featured at CHINAPLAS next week, along with examples of how they are integrated with processing and design services to accelerate product development. When paired with new brilliant metallic colorants, these materials streamline production with no tradeoffs in appearance.
