A new line of conductive and static dissipative products initially targeted for additive manufacturing pellet printing has been launched by Insight Polymers & Compounding. Moreover, the company plans to translate its success with the additive manufacturing compounds into injection molding and extrusion, and back these offerings with technical support and testing services.

Says Matt Torosian, the newly hired Insight Polymers sales and market development manager who will lead the effort, “Our new products and services comprise compounding for reactive polymer modification as well as conductive, wear and friction, and structural materials for vertical markets such as electronics, industrial, medical and consumer applications. Plus, we can meet material requirements and unmet needs with technical capabilities such as reactive extrusion, polymer modification and advanced conductive materials that utilize carbon nanotubes, graphene and conductive carbon.”

According Insight Polymers director of operations A.J. Pasquale, the company can dial in essential physical and conductive properties, and validate the results with new testing capabilities.

The blown film sector now benefits from a tailored solution developed by Chem-Trend to preserve integrity of the bubble.

There have been many attempts to provide twin-screw-like mixing in singles, but except at very limited outputs none have been adequate. The odds of future success are long due to the inherent differences in the equipment types.

There’s a simple answer: Because all plastics are not the same.
