Introducing TiC-Additions™  in Plastics

Modifying of melt-compounded resins for optimizing thermoplastic properties of strength, wear resistance, lubricity and dimensional stability is a high-demand business.  In responding to this demand, titanium carbide [TiC] was chemically-refined into “tailored alloy systems for engineered plastics”.  This alloy refinement continues to be proven effective in providing unrivalled abrasion resistance and durability of resin-bonded TiC-alloyed machine-parts and components.
 
To modify melt-compounded resins, the super-nano particulate TiC-Additions™ are metered down-stream for dilution into the host resin melt.  Variable let-down ratios determine the magnitude of composite abrasion resistance and durability.  Extruded micro-pellet output size recommended is 18-mesh [.040-inch] for converting into the net-shape molded machine-parts, compacts and machinable stock-shape bars.

With modified melt-compounded resins, purpose-built industrial-parts such as oil-field elements can be made more competitively capable of operating in extreme conditions of abrasion, heavy loads, high-heat and friction without the high costs related to pre-mature failure or early replacement.  Tough ceramic-like characteristics for plastics gear-ing, bearing and sealing will enable wide-ranging, unsurpassed part-life supremacy.

Magnified TiC-Additions
The super-hard, spheroidal-shaped TiC-Additions™   appear nano-ball bearing-like in etched plastic surface.  Added market advantage: near-frictionless superiority.  

 

Abrasion Wear Behaviour Graph 
The TiC-Additions™ in PEEK, P84 and UHMWPE works more extensively than other functional fillers to broaden the endurance of engineered thermoplastics that extend the composite service-life of non-metallic purpose-built industrial-parts and oil-field components.
