These changes correspond to differences in how mixtures of chemicals
must be classified as hazardous based on their constituents and the mixtures’ properties, and changes in
the disclosure required under GHS.
Changes will continue
to be made in our data which will come both from our vast supply base as well as from global chemical
and toxicity data used in determining GHS classifications.
Many organic particles, including those with an organic base resin and various additives which may also
include organic as well as inorganic fractions, when mixed with air in the correct concentrations, can

Most of the new TPEs are designed based on the
concept of matching the surface energy between the TPEs and the substrates.
TPE-2
TPE-2 materials are opaque and their base chemistries are different from TPE-1.
Each formulation was
designed to selectively bond to a substrate based on the functionality of the substrate material.

Over the last several years,
FIBER-LINE® and DuPont™ have formed a strong
partnership based upon the synergies between both
organizations
• FIBER-LINE®’s ability to add value to the already
attractive properties of both Kevlar®Para-Aramid &
Nomex® Meta-Aramid creates more opportunity in
the market place to provide solution driven products
to a diverse range of markets.
• Because FIBER-LINE® already processes so many dif-
ferent types and deniers of both Kevlar® & Nomex®,
we have been authorized by DuPont™ to distribute
small quantities of these fibers to an ever-growing
customer base

When considering sustainable content TPEs, recycled
content formulations have more limitations based on the comingled nature
of recycled raw materials.
For example, the use of
sustainable content such as bio-based or recycled sources can lower a PCF.
Keep in mind that a limited number
of toolmakers specialize in LSR molds—and many are based in Europe.

They are based on management’s expectations that involve a
number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by
the forward-looking statements.
