Nanotechnology Profiles Include Plastic Nanocomposites
Manufactured by Nanotechnology Profile Extruder
 Nanotechnology is one of the most exciting areas of research and development in plastics today. This twenty-first century advancing science is made possible by breakthroughs in our ability to understand, measure, manipulate, and control matter at a molecular scale (less than 100 nanometers in size — one-billionth of a meter). Some believe that Nanotechnology promises to be the springboard for revolutionizing the plastics industry and will result in new technologies that will pervade every sector of our economy and impact all of our lives.
Plastic Nanocomposites
The plastics industry is on the pioneering edge of Nanotechnological research. Plastic Nanocomposites are already in use in commercial applications in automotive parts, packaging films, appliances, fire-retardant plastics, antimicrobial materials and equipment housings. Plastic Nanocomposites have been used to produce automobile bumpers that weigh 60% less, but are twice as resistant to dents and scratches. Plastic shopping bags based on Nanotechnology are now in use that are lighter and emit less CO2 when destroyed because the plastic absorbs oxygen, ensuring that a greater percentage of the bag ends up as ash versus emitting CO2. Nanoclays (nano particles from natural clay) are being used to reinforce bio-based plastics that are fully biodegradable. Research in designing new polymers is progressing at breakneck speeds. Under development are:
- Plastic that is light, transparent and as strong as steel
- Self-healing plastics that can heal itself repeatedly when it cracks
- Bio-based polymers that match the properties of our workhorse plastics but are biodegradable
Nanotechnology Profile Extruder
 Our commitment to cutting edge technology is proven. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff is always up-to-date on new technologies and the availability of new and exciting Plastic Nanocomposites. Our goal is to be your Nanotechnology profile extruder.
We have been extruding nylon based Nanocomposite Profiles that offer superior impact, good stiffness, and are extremely lightweight (Specific Gravity of 1.06). This material exhibits low water absorption and is suitable for outdoor exposure.
