High-Temperature Expandable Graphite for Engineering Polymers
High Temperature Expandable Graphite from LUH is able to be used in thermoplastics without expanding during the extrusion process.
A polymer composite consists of a resin and substrate which when combined potentially gives an improvement to a variety of both physical and chemical properties. Lawrence Industries has the technical expertise and know-how to assist in the selection of the right additives from the extensive range available. The support we have from our long-standing Principals enables us to provide rapid sample selection and despatch to your door. The main areas of interest regarding polymer composites that we are active in are:
