POLYSTRAND™ THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES Tapes, Laminates & Panels Polystrand™ high performance composite tapes and laminates are made by combining thermoplastic polymers and continuous fibers to create continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) composites. The material is recyclable and can be incorporated back into traditional thermoplastic products and processes. Polystrand composite panels are made with continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic face sheets thermally bonded or adhered to traditional core materials such as honeycomb, foam, aluminum, and nonwovens as reinforcement.

When conventional thermoplastics can’t measure up, high-performance thermoplastics can meet the most stringent requirements. Which types of applications call for high-performance thermoplastics? CRITICAL DIFFERENCES What Makes High-Performance Thermoplastics Stand Out?

Polarity of the substrate dictates the chemical nature of the thermoplastic elastomer and hence the properties and the performance of the thermoplastic elastomer. Figure 1 shows the surface energy match of various thermoplastic elastomers with rigid thermoplastics. This test is done on overmolded plaques with TPE on top of rigid thermoplastic substrates.

THE CHALLENGE The automotive industry is increasingly turning to engineered thermoplastics to replace metal parts, thereby achieving benefits of lower weight for greater fuel efficiency, increased design freedom to incorporate larger numbers of sophisticated components, and lower costs from elimination of secondary fabrication steps. First, sheet metal restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs request different attachment configurations for the part, so it becomes extremely time-consuming to design and fabricate multiple variations in metal. HellermannTyton designers believed that engineered thermoplastics were the answer.
