|---|---|---|
Naturally occurring micas are excellent ways to improve noise reduction in polymeric plastic compounds. If you’re making plastics for applications like power tool housings, under-the-hood automotive parts, bitumen membranes for use in automotive and domestic appliances, or even water-based vibration damping coatings for trains, boats, buses and aero planes, you need noise and vibration damping, without elevated costs. Suzoriteis a highly lamellar phlogopite mica that will act as a vibration dampener while also improving structural properties and reinforcing the plastic compound. It’s a cheaper alternative than glass fiber and can be used as a partial replacement without affecting stiffness. Highly lamellar, Suzorite micas generate sound damping performance comparable to, or exceeding, glass fiber – and in all cases superior to those of the virgin resin. Suzorite has a high aspect ratio, making it ideal for improving mechanical properties of plastic composites, such as flexural modulus and strength, heat deflection and tensile strength. It also improves cross-flow shrinkage and shrinkage isotropy. And in Polyamide 6 plastics, it is an effective partial replacement for chopped glass fiber. In addition, Suzorite is ideal for improving noise reduction in polymeric compounds for: - Power tool housings - Under-the-hood automotive parts - Bitumen membranes for use in automotive and domestic appliances - Water-based structural vibration damping coatings for trains, boats, buses, aero planes, cars and many other applications. Key benefits: - Impact, stiffness & dimensional control - Barrier properties - Sound damping |
