They have extensive
experience in the following areas:
- Radiopaque
- Electrically
conductive/static-dissipative
- Reinforced
- Lubricated
- Anti-microbial
- Crosslinked
- Custom color
In addition Applied
Polymer development is a focused Foster corporation resource that offers
polymeric materials design, contract development and engineering services.
Recently Foster developed a new product line named SEP™polymers. Selectively
Enhanced Polymers represent the latest in materials technology whereby
selected properties are improved without detrimental trade-offs in other
key properties.
- Foster's new
SEP™ conductive urethanes combine static dissipation properties with
the unique flexibility and mechanical properties of urethanes. Thermoplastics
are inherently nonconductive and must be modified to dissipate electrical
charges that can be damaging to component hardware or other electrical
devices. Link

- Foster's new
SEP™ low friction urethanes combine low friction properties with the
unique flexibility and mechanical properties of urethanes. Low friction
properties are often required to enhance the function of mating components,
including tubing assemblies, seals, and much more. Link

- SEP™ nanocomposite
nylons offer a substantial increase in rigidity and stiffness while
maintaining a high degree of the elongation inherent in the base polymer.
Increased stiffness without brittleness is often required for to enhance
the mechanical performance of thin wall tubing, film and similar products.
