Advanced Resin Compounds are finding more and more wide-spread applications in a variety of industries. Well beyond traditional injection molding and plastics, advanced resin compound formulations are now being used for both military and commercial applications.
Advanced Resin Compound systems have broad, proven applications, in the aircraft, aerospace, and sports equipment sectors. Even more specifically, these systems are used for aircraft and aerospace structural parts. Advanced Resin Compound systems and materials have decades of history in military and government aerospace industries. However, much of the new technology is now being developed for secondary or commercial industry, as the technology is continually evolving.
Microtek Laboratories has the capabilities to assess the properties and integrity of these materials and provide you with the data required to evaluate the performance of the product applications. Listed below are some of our ASTM, IEC and UL test methods for composites, polymer, plastics, resin compounds and advanced materials.
