Material selection is a crucial step in any new product development project, but
that is just the beginning.
However, to ensure your material performs as intended,
there are several technical considerations to examine.
This involves
considerations with industrial design, material
selection, simulation results, and optimization of the
overall design as you learn to leverage the unique
capabilities of the LFT material.

Our Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio
includes flame retardant solutions as additive
concentrates which are incorporated into the
polymer during the spin-dyeing process.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Using conventional CFA ingredients, a special
conditioning process was used to prepare the raw
material for optimal foaming performance upon
polymer interaction.

This portfolio includes high-temperature materials for elevated service temperature environments, high-modulus/structural
materials for load-bearing and high-strength applications, and flame-retardant products.
Cold Slug Wells
• Place these wells at the base of the sprue to capture the cold material first
emerging from the nozzle
