Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

Properties: Compatibility with many different kinds of additives - PVC can be clear or coloured , rigid or flexible, formulation of the compound is key to PVC's "added value".

Applications: Window frames, drainage pipe, water service pipe, medical devices, blood storage bags, cable and wire insulation, resilient flooring, roofing membranes, stationary, automotive interiors and seat coverings, fashion and footwear, packaging, cling film, credit cards, synthetic leather and other coated fabrics.

Polyesters (Thermoplastic - PETP, PBT, PET)

Properties: PBT, PET and PBT Blends are engineering plastics with excellent processing characteristics and high strength and rigidity for a broad range of applications.

Applications: Engineering polymers are used in the manufacture of a wide range of components, including under bonnet parts, exterior parts (window wiper holders and exterior mirror housing).

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Other Specialist Styrenics

Properties: Rigid, opaque, glossy tough, good low temperature properties, good dimensional stability and easily electroplated, low creep.

Applications: Telephone handsets, rigid luggage, domestic appliance housings (food mixers), electroplated parts, radiator grills, handles and computer housings.

The Fiber-orientation flow analysis is used to predict the behavior of composite materials. While injection-molded fiber-reinforced thermoplastics constitute a major commercial application of short-fiber composite (a filler within a polymer matrix) materials, the modeling of the process is more complex than in other flow applications. In injection-molded composites, the fiber alignment (or orientation) distributions show a layered nature, and are affected by the filling speed, the processing conditions and material behavior, plus the fiber aspect ratio and concentration. Without proper consideration of the fiber behavior, there is a tendency to significantly overestimate the orientation levels. The Moldflow fiber orientation model allows significantly improved orientation prediction accuracy over a range of materials and fiber contents.
