Here, continuous fibers, such as glass or carbon, are pulled through a thermoset resin bath, such as epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester, and then formed into a desired shape using a die.
Carbon fiber pultrusions are exceptionally lighter than metal and other materials.

Because this material is injection-moldable, you can add
more electronics inside the housing and even reduce the device’s overall footprint.
Adding electronics, minimizing footprint –
Using Therma-Tech material for your housing allows
you to add more electronics without concerns of
excess heat impacting device functionality.

Novoloid fibers are composed of 76% carbon,
18% oxygen, & 6% hydrogen.
Novoloid can also be used a precursor to
carbon fiber.

In 2014,
it was spun off from Closure Systems International (CSI),
and currently produces over three billion aluminum
closures annually in 28 and 30 millimeter diameters
suitable for any type of still, carbonated or alcoholic
beverage packaged in glass, PET or aluminum bottles.
Maintaining a seal for carbonated water with high
internal pressure can be difficult and closurelogic caps
compression molded with GLS TPE liners are known to
have excellent pressure retention.
