RTP will showcase various product samples and various applications of the company's engineering thermoplastics at NPE 2018 in Orlando, Florida, May 7-11.
Highlighted this year will be carbon fiber composites, high temperature solutions and a series of injection moldable wear resistant alloys.
RTP engineers will be able to discuss the company's range of thermoplastic products, with a focus on:
Carbon fiber composites are lighter, stronger, and stronger than glass filled composites, providing a lightweight alternative to metal and fiberglass composites without sacrificing strength or performance.
High temperature solutions with improved performance at high temperatures, including retention of physical properties, autoclaving, reflow, and chemical resistance and dimensional stability in high continuous use applications;
Wear-resistant alloys exhibit wear resistance comparable to UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), but are specifically designed for injection molding. They have a variety of resins and additive combinations that provide additional features such as abrasion resistance, flame retardancy Sex and conductivity.
