With a weight savings of more than 50% versus plywood, these continuous-fiber reinforced thermoplastic sandwich panels offer boat manufacturers a lighter, more efficient alternative to traditional marine construction materials.  Hammerhead Marine Composite Panels consist of thermoplastics, continuous glass-fiber face sheets, and foam cores. Boat builders now have an innovative alternative based on strong, lightweight thermoplastic materials that can remove multiple production steps for better quality and economics,” said Matt Borowiec, general manager, PolyOne Advanced Composites.

ThermoBallistic thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems, offering a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins. Thermoplastic recycled-content composites can further support a circular economy and help customers lessen their environmental impact.

TECHNICAL BULLETIN PREPERM™ and Edgetek™ Low-Loss Dielectric Thermoplastics The PREPERM™ and Edgetek™ dielectric portfolios have been specially formulated to meet application demands for materials that enable faster and more reliable connections at high-band 5G frequencies (mmWave). These customizable thermoplastics provide stable and controlled dielectric performance, plus ultra-low transmission loss at mmWave frequencies up to 220 GHz.
