| Toray PMC CFRT® (XRP) is a reinforced thermoplastic composite laminate that brings innovative technology to orthotic and glass fiber reinforcement with polypropylene (PP) applications. It satisfies both the workshop need for ease of fabrication and the patient need for comfort and performance. Parts and devices made from thermoplastic sheets, of polypropylene, are reinforced in strategic locations by thermobonding the XRP panel to the polypropylene part during vacuum forming or drape molding. The result is a part with increased strength and stiffness, without having to raise the basic sheet thickness. We offer XRP in four different grades. Features: - Glass fibers for maximum reinforcement
- Increased strength and stiffness of local areas
- Polypropylene matrix, to heat weld to polypropylene and copolymer materials
- Thin and lightweight
- Allows reduction of part thickness
- Easily molded to deep contours
- Can be adjusted with local heat
Product Type And Composition: Glass fiber content: 55%; Polypropylene: 45% (Nominal volume percentages) Typical Applications: - Braces
- Foot inserts
- Reinforcements
- Sockets
