Hosting the live webinar, entitled; ‘Ultraviolet (UV) Resistance for Plastics’, RTP Company will go live on 11th April at 11am. This webinar is packed with information about thermoplastic compounds that can help protect applications from damaging UV light, thereby increasing the longevity and maintaining the desired aesthetics of the part.

A series of thermoplastic compounds formulated specifically for allowing high contrast marks and images to be added to an application via laser processing has been developed by RTP Company. Laser-Markable Compounds is a variety of polymers, including clear substrates, can be compounded to optimise laser marks, which eliminates the need for inks, paints, and dyes, thus saving on processing costs.

RTP Company now offers tribology data from an innovative new friction test to help designers of drug delivery devices select the best possible material for single-use applications.     

RTP Company has announced the acquisition of Polymer Partners. The organisation will be an integral part of RTP in the production of custom thermoplastics, with a special focus on black masterbatches and carbon black compounds suitable for wire and cable, pipe, sheet extrusion, film, bags, packaging, compounding, recycling and other applications in the automotive, medical, cosmetic, industrial and electronic industries.
