What are ultra performance materials?

Ultra-Performance (UP) Compounds from RTP Company are high temperature polymers and fiber reinforced materials specifically formulated to obtain elevated mechanical properties. These industry-leading compounds stand up to the most demanding requirements when compared to standard polymer compound options.

What is BASF material?

BASF produces a range of performance chemicals, coatings and functional polymers. These include raw materials for detergents, textile and leather chemicals, pigments and raw materials for adhesives, paper chemicals.

What are high performance thermoplastics?

High-performance thermoplastics (HPTPs) are high-priced, low-volume polymers that are sold for use in specialized applications that require a combination of extraordinary properties (the most important being that of high-heattemperature tolerance and performance).

What are high performance materials?

Simply put, when the focus is made on a particular grade of material, or when new properties have been developed based on traditional materials, the new material is termed as “advanced material” or “high-performance material”. Those materials are, for instance, metallic foams, magnetic alloys, special ceramics etc.

Does BASF make plastic?

BASF’s biopolymers are certified compostable and bio-based plastics which contribute to Circular Economy.

What is ultramid?

Ultramid® is the trade name for polyamides supplied by BASF for injection molding and extrusion. The basis of the Ultramid® grades are polyamides which are supplied in a variety of molecular weights or viscosities, have a range of additives and are reinforced with glass fibers or minerals.

What is the highest quality plastic?

PET is the most widely produced plastic in the world. It is used predominantly as a fiber (known by the trade name “polyester”) and for bottling or packaging….1. Polyethylene terephthalate (PETE or PET):

  • Wide applications as a fiber (“polyester”)
  • Extremely effective moisture barrier.
  • Shatterproof.

What are the advantages of high performance construction materials?

High-performance buildings combine energy efficiency, low cost, high durability (or service life), space flexibility, low environmental impact, and high quality of life.

What are smart materials?

Smart materials are materials that have properties which change reversibly, ie can change easily but can then easily change back, depending on changes in their surroundings.
