KEY CHARACTERISTICS The primary features and benefits of Gravi-Tech formulations are: • Customized density, offering a wide range of specific gravities from 1.5 to 11 gm/cm3 • Broad modulus range, from very flexible to very rigid grades • Corrosion resistance, withstanding oxidation for long-term use and benefit • Chemical resistance, withstanding fuels, oils and other harsh chemicals Additional features include: • Design flexibility and processing ease • Good impact strength • Elevated heat deflection temperature 6 Gravi-Tech Design Guide 7 CHAPTER 2 | PROCESS SETTINGS Density Modified Formulations Gravi-Tech™ polymer-metal composites are high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-based alternatives to lead and other traditional metals . These materials have been formulated using select metallic fillers and engineered thermoplastic resins to have densities similar to actual metals, while also providing the design flexibility and processing ease of conventional thermoplastics. If the material is shear-sensitive, consult the material data sheet or processing guide for instructions to set recovery time • The cooling time should only be 1–2 seconds longer than the screw recovery time, unless dictated by dimensional stability or part thickness Minimize Clamp Pressure This step is done to reduce the amount of energy used by the machine
