Moldable PP Fabric Composite

By Core Jr - October 8, 2005

in Materials

MFT (Moldable Fabric Technology) is a 100% PP thermoplastic composite from Milliken with excellent impact resistance and stiffness. This lightweight structure is an alternative to glass-filled composites the are heavier and require special handling.

Fabric or sheet can be molded using pressure thermoforming techniques. However, both must be constrained via clamping during the heating and molding process to prevent shrinkage.

Could I have a few samples to try? We are looking at a play pattern to use a material (fabric) to be moldable on a mannequin? Perhaps this product would work? Are there a variety of colors?
