This is primarily related to certain PFAS with PBT characteristics (persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic).
The second approach involves eliminating the use of fluorochemicals (the carbon fluorine bond) and working with alternative hydrocarbon chemistries.

Formulations are available with varying percentages
of long glass fiber, long carbon fiber, or hybrid
combinations to meet your structural requirements.
LONG GLASS FIBER SURFACE
AESTHETICS
Good surface cosmetics with glass fiber
reinforced nylons are difficult to obtain
without high mold temperatures that
lengthen cycle times.
Complēt moisture
resistant nylons reinforced with long glass
fiber produce a smooth, fiber-free finish
without special processing to give molded
components a high-quality appearance.

Performance advantages:
• Non-conductive: formulations engineered
to optimize composite dielectric properties
• Lightweight: up to 80% lighter than porcelain,
reducing installation time and cost
• High strength: high tensile, compressive,
flexural and inter-laminar shear strength
to support various design configurations
and line loads
• Flexible: deflect and return to original shape
for load dampening to minimize damages
and outages
• Durable and shatter resistant vs. ceramic
and glass, and UV and corrosion resistant
for long service life
