An Introduction to Alloys and Blends of Engineering Plastics

In recent years, there has been a significant progress in Compounding of Engineering Plastics in India. This is mainly driven by special needs of Automotive and Electrical & Appliance industries due to introduction of high-performance applications as well as due to regulatory requirements and to adhere to stringent specifications. Several new applications have been developed as well as material selection has been optimized to meet specific end-use requirements. A classic example and perhaps the first such large scale move to Engineering Plastics in India is the household electrical switch. Traditionally made of thermosetting PF, MF and UF Resin and then from Filled PP all these switches are now made of FR Polycarbonate...
