For stiffness or strength requirements, consider leveraging long fiber thermoplastics technologies. However, advancements in engineering thermoplastics now enable effective heat dissipation comparable to metals but at a fraction of the weight. This is 50 to 100 times greater than standard thermoplastics and 1/5 that of cast aluminum.
