The resin inherently offers heat resistance, but for some demanding applications, it also needs the addition of flame retardants to increase its resistance to flammability. Traditionally, these flame retardants have often contained polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which is part of per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS), a group of chemicals widely used to resist heat, oil, stain, and water.

PolyOne collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic-resistant panels that were not only compatible with required hardware but also met color requirements for better visual cover once deployed.  Today, these systems are used by soldiers when constructing blast resistant mortar pits, shelters, and guard towers in combat outposts.

Durability and Fatigue Resistance for Demanding Applications During processing these longer fibers intertwine and align to form an internal fiber skeleton that strengthens the polymer to help carry and dissipate stress forces – greatly increasing strength and impact resistance. Complēt™ LGF, moisture-resistant grade delivers improved performance and cost savings for aftermarket parts manufacturer

All grades utilize 35 to 60 percent bio-renewable content, and they deliver varying hardness levels, favorable property retention UV resistance and flame retardancy comparable to traditional TPEs. Resists UV degradation Formulated TPE with 43% bio-based content plus favorable UV resistance and vibration damping performance compared to standard TPE

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.  Abrasion resistance

Is it necessary to have bleed resistance, extra adhesion, elongation, both bleed resistance and elongation or both extra adhesion and elongation?  If the garment shows an immediate bleed – it is possible that the dryer is too hot, or the garment is staying in the heat chamber too long, or the need for a more bleed resistant ink is needed.
