Cesa™ Fiber Additives for Face Masks Learn how one manufacturer used compliant Cesa™ Fiber Additives in nonwoven medical face masks

Traditionally, many connectors of this type are produced using liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) formulated with carbon fiber.    Meet targeted cost-performance requirements – The selected resin must offer significant savings over the current LCP/carbon fiber formulation through material and/or manufacturing savings, thus enabling penetration of the low-cost computer market with a competitive connector.

The Edgetek™ ET8900 Series consists of glass-filled and high impact specialty engineered polyketone (PK) thermoplastics.

These solutions offer high clarity and bond to a variety of substrates. Fiber-Line™ Coated Kevlar® Fiber reduces weight in Jet Turbine Containment Rings by 80% when compared to traditional steel applications. This abundant supply includes thousands of tons of PVB, found in the inner layer of the glass, potentially bound for landfills.
