Plenco® 00755 is a melamine-phenolic copolymer molding compound offering excellent electrical and flame resistant properties. UL recognized under component file E40654. 00755 is available only in brown. 00755 was qualified under military specification MIL-M-14 (superseded by ASTM D-5948) TYPE CMG and batches can, if requested and paid for, be tested for certification to the standard.

Plenco® 00714 is a melamine-phenolic copolymer molding compound, offering excellent arc resistance and comparative track index values. UL recognized under component file E40654. 00714 is available in brown. 00714 was qualified under military specification MIL-M-14 (superseded by ASTM D-5948) Type CMG and batches can, if requested and paid for, be tested for certification to the standard.

Verkid® BMC PX4 is a fiber reinforced compound, in a thermoset resin matrix, with mineral fillers and different additives. Generally thermoset unsaturated polyester or vynil-ester resins are used as organic matrix. With the aim of enhance its characteristics and improve its transformation, other components are added: catalysts, inhibitors, thermoplastic additives, demoulding agents, thickeners and pigments.

FIL-A-GEHR® PEEK MG (MEDI) is a high performance filament based on the material PEEK and is suitable for medical and pharmaceutical applications in direct body contact with tissue, bone, skin and mucous membrane up to 24 hours. They have been tested and evaluated by independent, accredited test laboratories and meet the following biocompatibility requirements: – ISO 10993-1/5/12/18 and USP Class VI.

Carbkid® Fiber VE SMC is a polymer composite material reinforced with carbon fiber, which consists of a thermoset resin (usually vinylester or epoxy) and different additives that allow to obtain certain specific characteristics and improve the behavior of the material during the molding process of the final product. While the standard SMC is reinforced with glass fibers, the CSMC is reinforced with cut fibers or carbon fabrics. CSMC materials combine the low-weight characteristics offered by carbon composites in conjunction with a widespread forming process, such as compression molding, which allows for short manufacturing cycles and is therefore suitable for industrial applications in large series.

Verkid® SMC H154 is used in hot press, compression molding for the production of large parts with high mechanical properties and excellent surface finish. It is a glass fiber reinforced compound, in a thermoset resin matrix, with mineral fillers and different additives.

3B Fiberglass MF 01 ER are E-CR glass filaments ground to a specified density. MF 01 ER is designed to reinforce products like thermoplastics, thermoset resins, glues, coatings, and adhesives within a large range of applications and markets.MF 01 ER represents a main improvement compared to minerals when aiming for a higher stiffness and/or better impact properties in combination with specific properties, such as flow enhancement, flame retardancy, uniform isotropic shrinkage, resistance to acid environment, coating stability, etc. MF 01 ER can be collocated in between mineral fillers and most com-monly available milled fibers as it dis-plays an intermediate length/diameter aspect ratio. The product comes in a powdery form that provides both improved flowability/handling and low density.

GEHR PEEK® MG (MEDI) is produced at a continuous operating temperature of this high-performance plastic ranges between approximately -40° C and +260° C. It features an extraordinary combination of very high rigidity, hardness, tensile strength and bending strength (high toughness and fatigue strength), high heat deflection temperature and excellent resistance to disinfectants and detergents. The hydrolytic stability is exceptionally high, so that repeated sterilization in steam is possible without any problems. PEEK is self-extinguishing according to UL94 specifications. The raw materials used meet the requirements of FDA and EU 10/2011 for food contact materials.
