Thermoplastic compounds are defined as thermoplastic polymers that have been customized with additives and colors so that final materials are ready for further processing (injection molding, extrusion molding, blow molding). Polypropylene is often enhanced with additives that reinforce and strengthen plastic parts. Specialty compounding can make plastics perform at a higher level than traditional plastic. Polyvinyl chloride polymers are regularly enhanced to make the plastic flexible and easy to process. Our team can also add extra UV stabilizers or flame retardancy.
Almost all thermoplastic materials can be made as a specialized compound. When looking for the best specialty compounding New York has, make sure the company offers a variety of color, material, and specialty compounding options.
