Environmental Stress Cracking Resistance (ESCR) Design Guide Injection molding parameters and processing guides for these advanced, chemically resistant Edgetek™ materials Artisan™ AR7300 pre-colored thermoplastics are customized ABS formulations to help manufacturers achieve brilliant and high-gloss metallic effect, excellent chemical resistance, and scratch resistance

Strategies to counteract failure in this “new normal” of heightened disinfection are two fold: One, selecting materials with improved chemical resistance and two, modifying part design to reduce residual stresses .

Can offer scratch resistance, anti-dust adhesion and UV resistance Scratch & Mar Resistant Additives: Cesa™

The customized ABS formulation with metallic effect was developed to help electronics manufacturers eliminate the painting process while achieving scratch and chemical resistance performance and sustainability goals.  Our newest Artisan metallic effect ABS formulation can help design engineers address these current trends – as well as scratch resistance, chemical resistance, and design freedom – while eliminating secondary processing.”

In the past, excellent aesthetics often meant compromising processing speed and performance attributes, such as abrasion resistance, stain resistance, and cycle times.  These TPEs also offer critical UV and stain resistance to endure everyday wear and tear.

Featuring excellent opacity and low-temperature (260-280°F, 127-138°C) cure bleed resistance, EPIC Single LC White can also help avoid ghosting on cotton substrates when hot stacking garments. EPIC Single LC White is an addition to Wilflex’s existing portfolio of white inks, which will soon be introduced in upgraded formulations, including: • EPIC Top Score LC White – aimed at 100% polyester sports apparel, ideal for short run jobs • EPIC Polywhite LC – provides greater bleed resistance for 100% polyester sports garments • EPIC Performance LC White – combines low bleed with ultra-stretch properties • EPIC Amazing Bright White – upgraded to improve bleed resistance and opacity on cotton poly blends

The device housing features Resilience™ HC, a rigid vinyl formulation designed to resist stress cracking from exposure to a wide range of hospital disinfectants.  In addition to its disinfectant resistance, this material contains the necessary flammability and UV resistance needed for the application while also providing excellent moldability and surface finish.

Ballistic-resistant panels made with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites offer key properties enabling Southern States to meet its customers’ critical needs. The Southern States Ballisti-Wall® and Ballisti-Cover® ballistic-resistant solutions made it easy to customize for each application and, at the same time, meet customers’ tight delivery requirements. Southern States’ ballistic-resistant solutions incorporate three layers of uniquely formulated GlasArmor composite panels to achieve Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Level 8 protection.

In some instances, it also was subject to UL’s Vertical Wire Class 1 rating for flame resistance (VW-1). It offered protection from ultraviolet radiation, with improved resistance to heat, cracking, abrasion and creep. It also complied with the critical standards – UL 4703 for photovoltaic wire, UL 44 for indoor use and VW-1 for flame resistance – enabling streamlined production of wires and cables that meet virtually all specifications for solar USE-2 applications.

ECCOH™ LSFOH 5983 Formulation provides high ESCR and tear resistance for a power cable jacket ECCOH™ 5702 SEPAP Formulation for flame retardant sheath properties in riser cables, also offering UV and chemical resistance Versaflex™ TPE Formulation provided chemical resistance and bonding for EV charging gun grip
