offering
high performance, lower costs and enviromental benefits. Composites can match
the highets specifications by combining specific materials, and at a weight
that is far below that of materials like steel and aluminium. Compared with
the more conventional thermoset composites, advanced reinforced thermoplastic
offer much shorter cycle times, better impact resistance, absence of harmful
gases during processing and full recyclability.
Needless to say, lighter products i general create enormous enviromental benefits
for tomorrow`s world
Depending
on the specifications needed, Cato Composites uses a variety of thermoplastic
composite materials in the forming process. Among these are glass, carbon,
aramid and hybrid fabrics combined with PP, PBT, PA and others. Through engineering
and prototyping, almost any mechanical, physical and chemical specification
can be met.
This new class of materials offers great advantages when it comes to costs,
performance and environmental
issues.
Unit costs can be cut thanks to the advanced production methods. This opens
up the possibilitiy of a completely new range of products to be made out of
composites,
