MetaFuse nanocrystalline metal\/polymer hybrid is a polymer\/metal hybrid technology that can be used to manufacture extremely lightweight components with the strength and stiffness of metal combined with the design flexibility and lightweight benefits of high-performance thermoplastics.
\nA thin high-strength metal layer is applied to moulded components made of DuPont Engineering Polymers to create lightweight components in complex shapes with the stiffness of magnesium or aluminium and higher strength.
\nThe main features of Metafuse are:
\n\u00b7 Increased strength and stiffness at minimum weight
\n\u00b7 Direct fabrication of structural components in complex shapes
\n\u00b7 Improving strength, stiffness and creep of plastic parts at elevated temperatures
\n\u00b7 Adding hard, wear resistant and potentially low friction coating to plastics
\n\u00b7 Make plastics more impermeable, conductive and dimensionally stable
\n\u00b7 Aesthetics \/ metal look.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
