LONG FIBER TECHNOLOGY PROVIDES POWERFUL SOLUTION FOR BETTCHER INDUSTRIES © 2020, All Rights Reserved Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012 Quantum is a trademark of Bettcher Industries, Inc. Because of the collaborative engineering with Avient, we were able to confidently transition to the long fiber technology and ultimately deliver a high-end, innovative product to our customers.”

The Silcosperse EC series is based on varying technologies, ranging from single wall carbon nano tubes (SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nano tubes (MWCNT), to conventional grades of conductive carbon black (CB) in higher dosing percentages. Lower dosing percentages in SWCNT and MWCNT technologies allow a wider processing and formulation window than with available conventional products.

This paper covers the varied aspects of this technology. Overmolding technology facilitates such a combination. Also, this new technology can reduce cost by reducing the number of TPEs needed for different applications.
