Beyond these, one clear impact of the pandemic has been on the packaging industry, where vastly increased e-commerce and the focus on hygiene has shown, for example, PET bottles and containers to be an ideal solution to shifting consumer and regulatory trends.   It has already started producing useful data and we will use this to continue to develop new and unique masterbatch solutions with proven science behind how they perform during recycling processes, offering customers a portfolio certified by the laboratory. We expect to introduce more products throughout 2021 as new data is generated.

Carbon fiber increases modulus more than glass or natural fibers and a composite with 50% fiber will be stiffer than one containing 30%. When deploying long fiber composites as a substitute for other materials, one needs to look beyond material cost alone. Flame Retardant – Increase product safety by including flame retardants to provide halogen-free fire resistant/smoke density/smoke toxicity (FST) and UL94 compliance.
