This amber-colored, transparent material belongs to the group of amorphous high-performance plastics. Polysulfone has a good heat deflection temperature and heat aging resistance (-100 °C to +160 °C). In addition, this material has a high hardness and strength, very good hydrolytic stability and high radiation resistance (permeable to microwaves up to 2.45 GHz). PSU also has high dimensional stability and resistance to β- and γ-, X-rays and infrared rays. However, PSU is not UV stable and notch sensitive.

Sarafil base films are suitable for a range of applications with its inherent properties of being clear, transparent, flexible and with high Tensile strength and modulus with high heat resistance.

CR general-purpose rubber has an excellent balance of physical and chemical properties that make it suitable in a range of applications.

A plastomer is a polymer material which combines qualities of elastomers and plastics, such as rubber-like properties with the processing ability of plastic. As such, the word plastomer is a portmanteau of the words plastic and elastomer. Significant plastomers are ethylene-alpha olefin copolymers.

St. Louis Group manufactures and distributes a comprehensive line of smoke suppressants that include traditional smoke suppressants, as well as low cost AOM alternatives and high-performance proprietary blends.

The Enviroplas ENVIRON® alloy is a unique blend of semi-crystalline polyester (polybutylene terephthalate, or polyethylene terephthalate) and polycarbonate. Our ENVIRON® products offer superior chemical resistance, impact strength, cold temperature impact, good flow, toughness and heat resistance. Enviroplas resin has been the material of choice for custom polycarbonates and polycarbonate alloys since 1993, and our ENVIRON® alloy and ENVIRON® PBT grades can be formulated to meet your applications needs including flame retardants, custom colors, impact modifiers, and UV packages to meet your weatherability requirements Enviroplas is more than a polycarbonate manufacturer. We are an engineering resin solutions company. Specialty grades are also available that are reinforced with fiberglass or minerals, such as mica and wollastonite.

RoyalEdge® EPDM is used in a wide variety of elastomeric applications that require superior heat, ozone and chemical resistance, excellent long term aging and outstanding weathering. RoyalEdge® EPDM products are terpolymers of ethylene, propylene and a non-conjugated diene (ENB or DCPD) that vary in viscosity, ethylene/propylene ratio, and type and amount of diene according to desired processability and end properties.

Material & Design Solutions’ (MDS) PEKTRON PEEK is an excellent choice for high temperature, high pressure applications in aggressive chemical environments. These injection molded PEEK compounds have been qualified for use up to 550°F (288°C) and 22,500 psi (0.16 GPa). PEKTRON PEEK high performance thermoplastics offer outstanding chemical resistance and wear properties in a broad spectrum of industries and applications. The injection molded compounds demonstrate excellent resistance to hot water and steam and are unaffected by continuous exposure up to 550°F (288°C).

Stanyl is a high-performance aliphatic polyamide with a melting temperature of 295°C that due to its high crystallinity and fast crystallization speeds entails three key strengths: Excellent high-temperature mechanical performance Excellent wear and friction properties Superior flow

MicrOring® seal is any o-ring that measures less than 1 mm in either inside diameter or cross section. Apple Rubber offers MicrOring® seals in more than 2,000 sizes, ranging from the largest, with an inside diameter or cross section of .039 in. (1.0 mm), down to .008 in. (.20 mm) inside diameter and cross section.

MOULEX® additives improve and allow the processing of Composites, Rubber (Profiles, tires, etc.), thermoplastics and wood (Panels, paper impregnation, etc.).

ESPOLEX® TPE Series is distinguished by offering many low-density grades that can provide substantial weight and cost savings over higher-density thermoplastic elastomers.

The SILRES® brand comprises a wide range of silicones for coatings, paints and construction applications. The portfolio has been developed and continuously improved since the 1950's when the first silicone resins for building protection originated in WACKER laboratories. It features not only time-tested and innovative products, but also tailored solutions for a host of applications, climates and substrates. And it is supported by a range of extensive services available from our technical centers worldwide which provide further customization and customer-specific options.

Our glass fiber reinforcements are 10 or 16 microns in diameter and milled to lengths ranging from 120 to 470 microns. They are used in composites to increase mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural and impact strength. They are also used to increase dimensional stability and minimize distortion at elevated temperatures. Milled glass fibers are compatible with all thermoset and thermoplastics resins. Surface treatments are available that may enhance performance. Microglass milled fibers are E-glass filaments hammer milled to various bulk densities. Microglass is used as a filler/reinforcement in composites to increase mechanical properties (tensile, flexural and impact), improve dimensional stability and minimize distortion at elevated temperatures.
