Depending on the formulation, TPEs can produce a range of tangible finishes —from silky smooth, to slightly tacky, to very grippy. With a diverse range of formulations on the market today, TPEs exhibit a wide range of resistance to chemicals. These stabilizers usually act by absorbing the UV radiation preferentially, and dissipating the energy as low-level heat.

The company adds value to global customers and improves sustainability through formulating specialty materials. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the time required to consummate the acquisitions; the satisfaction or waiver of conditions in the purchase agreements; any material adverse changes in Clariant's masterbatch business; the ability to consummate the acquisitions; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the acquisitions, including any expected synergies; our ability to successfully integrate Clariant's masterbatch business and achieve the expected results of the acquisitions, including, without limitation, the acquisitions being accretive; disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; an inability to achieve the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to acquisition and integration, working capital reductions, costs reductions and employee productivity goals; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.

But choosing which composite material out of the spectrum of reinforcement and matrix combinations—from short to long to continuous fibers, and thermoset to thermoplastic resin formulations—is not so simple. Continuous fiber reinforced thermoset materials perform well in applications such as composite springs and archery bow limbs where consistent flexural performance is needed, and electrical transmission and distribution components where lightweight strength and weatherability are critical.  Product Selection Guide Glasforms™ Electrical Components Learn more about composite materials for power transmission and distribution products.
