For the materials tested, a variety of flame-retardant (FR) polycarbonate (PC) alloys, including blends with
acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT),
were benchmarked against FR copolyester and the chemically resistant (CR) aliphatic polyketone (PK) blends
of the Trilliant HC8900 and Edgetek ET8900 series.

SELECTION GUIDE
reSound™ REC Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers
Post-industrial and post-consumer recycled TPEs
To help brands reach their sustainability goals,
reSound™ REC post-industrial recycled (PIR) and post-
consumer recycled (PCR) TPE formulations utilize
9–83% recycled content. reSound REC TPEs can be
overmolded onto polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate
(PC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and PC/ABS
blends, and are suitable for injection molding.

PULTRUSION FIBERS PROCESSES PRODUCTS
Overview
FIBER-LINE® pultrusion is the process of impregnating and curing fibers
in a resin system to form a rigid rod.
Resin chemistry is optimized for process conditions, fiber adhesion,
and end-use application of FRP.
Resin impregnated fibers are
chemically cured with thermal or ultraviolet energy to form a highly
crosslinked thermoset matrix.

FEATURES
• Created for
applications where
an untreated fiber
does not have the
ability to provide the
appropriate amount
of bonding
characteristics to
another material
• Provides adhesion to
another fiber or
substrate without
impacting other
performance
properties
• Improves adhesion
of the fiber to the
resin matrix it is
introduced into
• Enables industry
standard “burst”
tests or stringent
delamination
analysis
• Designed to achieve
vibrant colors for
safety, identification,
and aesthetics
• Specialized formulas
and binders adhere
the pigment to the
exterior of the
individual filaments,
while impregnating
deep into the fiber
bundle
• Available by Pantone
or RAL number
• Compatible with a
variety of composite
resins including
epoxy, polyurethane,
and polyethylene
• Stronger than
solution-dyed fibers
• Designed to add
lubricity and
temperature
resistance at the
filament level for
braided compression
packing
• Coating at the fiber
level versus the
finished braid
achieves higher %
level coating
• Fiber level coating
extends the life of
the braid and
reduces required
maintenance
• Various formulations
available
• PTFE, silicone,
graphite, and
mineral oil
• Created for high
performance fibers
that lack inherent
ultraviolet (UV)
resistance
• Coating impregnates

• Functionally replaces
flooding compounds,
filling gels, spun SAF
yarns, and water
blocking tapes
• Enables faster, more
economical and robust
cable manufacturing
• Increases durability and
abrasion resistance by
encapsulating filaments
in the fiber bundle
• Extends the life of the
product by reducing the
effects of friction and
yarn on yarn abrasion
• Protects the fiber
from degradation and
filamentation
• Ideal for high abrasion
and high friction
applications in a range
of fiber constructions
and environments
• Wicking refers to the
tendency of a yarn
or other fiber to draw
moisture into filaments
via capillary action
• Coatings designed to
prevent moisture from
wicking within and
between fibers and
strands
• Protects Wire or Optical
Fiber from damaging
effects of moisture,
which can cause a drop
in signal and attenuation
• Hydrophobic additives
used to promote and
enhance water
repellancy in industrial
applications
• Creates a waterproof
barrier that prevents
moisture from further
migration
• Applied at various %
levels to optimize for
water-proof ratings
• Designed to inhibit or
slow the spread of
fire/flame
• Coupled to fibers with
inherent flame and
thermal resistance to
boost performance
