These performance-enhancing polymer additives are used to create high-strength, low-density composite parts and syntactic foams for use in the automotive, marine, heavy truck, aerospace, oil and gas industries. Marketplace Description Extended Bullets - Additive used for density reduction in sheet and bulk molded composite vehicle parts
- Allows greater density reduction at lower filler loadings to maintain composite strength of automotive parts
- Can significantly help improve fuel economy and extend electric vehicle battery range
- Enables automotive parts with Class A paintable finishes
- Enables production of ultra-lightweight composite parts that may offer a lower cost alternative to aluminum in many applications
- Helps reduce weight of composite parts by up to 40 percent with a density below 1.0g/cc
- High strength-to-density ratio enables maximum net buoyancy for deepwater applications
- In thermal insulation, reduces oil and gas pipeline weight by >50% compared to pipe-in-pipe constructions
- Low thermal conductivity ideal for demanding deepwater conditions
- Spherical shape and moderate hardness help reduce production equipment wear
- Used as a raw material in syntactic foam for pipes and risers in deepwater oil and gas recovery operations
