Abstract
The right combination of polymer, filler and additives can provide a wide variety of performance levels in thermoplastic compounds. However, the relationship between performance and cost remains crucial if the application is ever likely to be successful. Dr. Chris DeArmitt describes an approach that can provide a preliminary assessment of whether a certain plastics compound might be worth further investigation for a particular application requiring certain mechanical properties.
