Carbon Fiber Underbody Braces Make Corvette Driving Experience Even More Exhilarating
The Glasforms business unit formulated a carbon-fiber-reinforced composite material for the C7 Corvette Z06 and non-Z06 underbody braces.
The carbon fiber-reinforced composite part was 17% lighter than the stock aluminum part, and the composite held up well in GM's extensive vibration, shake and road test regimen.

But after sitting on display for a few weeks, they begin to collect dust from pollen, textile fibers and even skin cells.
Suppliers and OEMs looking for a broader color palette will also benefit from masterbatches.
While most antistatic parts do not have good bonding surfaces for paint, masterbatches allow for the inclusion of colorants to achieve molded-in color without the need for paint.
