ElectriPlast Corp. is a leading technology innovator in conductive plastics with a broad intellectual property portfolio and deep application development expertise. Its core material, ElectriPlast®, is an electrically conductive resin-based material whose properties allow it to be molded into infinite shapes and sizes associated with plastics and rubbers, while reducing component weight by 40 to 60%. Integral is a leader in conductive hybrid plastics, having over 50 issued patents for conductive plastic.

Reinforced polymer materials are increasingly being used for structural applications because they allow manufacturers to replace traditional metal components with lighter-weight plastics. However, transitioning from metal to plastic requires thorough technical analysis and preparation. By factoring in static and dynamic data, the CAE simulations can identify where an injection molded plastic part may crack or break when exposed to real-world conditions such as physical loading force, sudden impact (crash simulation), or environmental factors like temperature and humidity.

Plastics processing periodically requires the complete removal of thermooxidized deposits from extruders and injection molding machines. The effectiveness of Cesa Clean comes from the mechanical scrubbing action during purging between the material, plasticizing screw, and barrel. Improve the flow characteristics of plastics during process and enhance both appearance and function

Among all the different types of plastics on the market today, why would anyone choose polyaryletherketones (PAEK), polysulfones (PSU), liquid crystal polymers (LCP), polyetherimides (PEI) and polyphenylene sulfides (PPS) for their application? While commodity plastics and engineering plastics can typically maintain their performance in environments up to 100°C and up to 120°C, respectively, a high-performance thermoplastic can withstand continuous use temperatures of 230°C.

It soon became clear that any advantage gleaned from the supplier’s location was offset by its inability to consistently monitor output quality.

To meet the manufacturer’s goals for the mouse grip, a clear TPE overmolding material, GLS Versaflex™, was formulated for improved ergonomics and comfort, strong chemical resistance, and excellent bonding to the ABS substrate.
