PolyOne Showcases Its Expanding Portfolio of Long Fiber Thermoplastics at CHINAPLAS 2019 GUANGZHOU, China – 2019年5月21日 – PolyOne is highlighting its expanding long fiber thermoplastic portfolio at CHINAPLAS 2019 this week, including

Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) are a diverse family of rubber-like materials that can be repeatedly melt processed. This defines TPE as a thermoplastic polymer material.

With PK, you can get engineered thermoplastic performance with an added benefit of a polyolefin carbon footprint. In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics. If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear. 

With a weight savings of more than 50% compared to plywood, these continuous-fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite sandwich panels offer boat manufacturers a lighter, more efficient alternative to traditional marine construction materials. Hammerhead Marine Composite Panels are made from continuous glass-fiber reinforced thermoplastic face sheets and polyester foam cores.
