The major types of
thermoplastics include polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyester and a range of specialized engineering
resins.
Further performance can be delivered through an
engineered thermoplastic sheet or thick film, which may incorporate more than one resin formulation or composite in
multiple layers to impart additional properties such as gas barrier, structural integrity and lightweighting.
Our technical and market expertise enables us to expand the
performance range and structural properties of traditional engineering-grade thermoplastic resins to meet evolving
customer needs.

One
proven approach is to replace traditional vulcanized
rubber materials with thermoplastic elastomers,
better known as TPEs.
Commercial Improvements
Lower part costs improve margins and increase
competitive edge.
In addition, production costs increase, as rubber parts typically require
deflashing and assembly using adhesives.

A diverse
portfolio of purpose-engineered electrical
components that meet the specific and rigorous
demands of the electrical utility industry, and
have been trusted by major utility product
manufacturers for over 40 years.
Performance advantages:
• Non-conductive: formulations engineered
to optimize composite dielectric properties
• Lightweight: up to 80% lighter than porcelain,
reducing installation time and cost
• High strength: high tensile, compressive,
flexural and inter-laminar shear strength
to support various design configurations
and line loads
• Flexible: deflect and return to original shape
for load dampening to minimize damages
and outages
• Durable and shatter resistant vs. ceramic
and glass, and UV and corrosion resistant
for long service life
