Use OfAdvance Thermoplastics For Construction Of Heavy Density Products

Posted by Michael Luis on December 15th, 2021

There has been a lot of awareness of the growing need for eco-friendly and sustainable industrial products. The use of traditional metals like lead in industrial products is connected with lead toxicity and hence caused a lot of health issues to the customers or product consumer.

A great alternative to toxic metals like lead is the high-density thermoplastic which has higher density, specific gravity and is sustainable in terms of use. The advanced thermoplastic is used for the production of a range of products like radiation shielding equipment, frangible bullets, vibration dampening products, and sustainable weighing balance.

?    Properties that Make Thermoplastic Safer Alternatives

The advance engineered thermoplastics are better and non-toxic material for the construction of a wide range of products as it gives durability and sustainability. The high density engineered thermoplastic helps in the production of OEMs and a wide range of material processors for its use in industrial devices and products.

The engineered thermoplastics are products that have high gravity and hence they can be used for the development of plastic through the technique of injection moulding. These have high specific gravity and hence it helps in reducing the cost that incurs from the secondary processing and operation of the components.

?    Application and Use of the Advanced Engineered Thermoplastics

Heavy plastics are engineered materials that are plastic with a mix of advanced materials like carbon fibre or nano-silver which makes them durable. Thermoplastics have advanced properties like higher tensile strength, durability, long-lasting, and reduced toxin release. These are sustainable options with several applications.


•    Use of Thermoplastic in Frangible – The ammunition and frangible that are designed from engineered thermoplastic are non-toxic. These help in manufacturing green bullets with production using composite material like tungsten or copper. It is reliable and safe to use during combat training


•    Manufacturer of Vibration Damping Products – The high-density material is used for the construction of equipment or component that dampen vibration. As the engineered plastics are dense, it helps in damping the vibration by reducing energy and restricting the oscillations


•    Development of Radiation Shielding Device – The medical devices has gamma or X-ray which can be harmful when it comes in direct contact. The advance high-density thermoplastic help with making radiation shield device using the composite of tungsten powder to reduce radiation impact


•    Production of Weighing and Balances – As the engineered thermoplastic has high gravity, it helps with the elimination of toxic material and hence design weighs and balances that are lead-free. With designing of injection-moldable materials, it helps in creating a flexible range of weighing and balanced components

?    Affordable and Custom Design of Engineered Plastic Material

The high-density thermoplastics are non-toxic and lead-free components that help in meeting the demand for the industry in terms of sustainable products. It is a great replacement for lead and is used in an array of products.


The cost of production is affordable and products can be custom designed with their moldable or injection moulding nature. Heavy thermoplastics can be used in even construction of electronic components owing to their sustainable nature.
