Do INHANCE® particles and fibers have a shelf life?
A. The surface-modification chemistry used to manufacture these products is permanent. The shelf life has been demonstrated to be greater than 12 years-longer-term testing is ongoing. INHANCE® TiC Particles 1. What exactly are INHANCE® TiC Polymer Alloys? A. This product line consists of unique combinations of very small (2µ) titanium carbide grains and polymers that form a new class of high-performance alloys. These alloys provide outstanding abrasion resistance, reduced friction, excellent strength, high temperature stability, and are lightweight. These materials can be combined with a broad range of polymeric materials (thermosets and thermoplastics). These, in turn, can be easily formed into ultra-performing end products via the usual plastic conversion processes, such as casting, injection molding, compression molding, and extrusion. 2. Are special processing conditions required for molding products with these additives? A. No, TiC-filled polymers use the same process conditions u
