Material Modification
Materials modifications can provide the desired properties of new materials, such as higher thermal stability, better impact strength, stiffness, flexibility, etc properties, and most of the time, it will lower the cost for customers.
Zhongde with experience in material modification. The engineer depends on the material properties, the customer's desired effect, and processing conditions to choose the appropriate plastic additive for unique project requirements.

Molding Material Additives
Name | Description |
---|---|
UV absorbers | Absorb UV radiation, slowing down the degradation of the material when used outdoors. |
Flame retardants | Prevent ignition and inhibits the spread of fire. |
Plasticizers | Increase flexibility and promotes plasticity, reducing the brittleness of the material. |
Colorants | Used to color plastics. |
Carbon fibers | Increase strength, toughness, and rigidity of the material at the expense of making the material more brittle. |
Glass Fibers | Increase strength, toughness, and rigidity of the material at the expense of making the material more brittle. It is more flexible than carbon fibers. |
