Materials we mOLD
Cuyahoga Plastics produces the highest quality Compression Molding & Silicone Molding Material for use across numerous fields and industries.
compression molding / Bulk Molding Compounds
- Compression molding
- Injection molding (thermoset)
- Transfer molding
Phenolics
Phenolic Molding Compound is often known as “Bakelite”. There are a number of manufacturers and many many grades and it is an economical choice.
It is used for various applications due to the excellent heat resistant, electrical insulation properties and dimensional stability.
DAPs
Diallyl-Phthalate (DAP) has long been the material of choice for critical, high-performance military and commercial electrical components where long-term reliability is demanded.
- Highly resistant to sudden, extreme jolts and severe stresses
- Highly resistant to solvents, acids, alkalies, fuels, hydraulic fluids, plating chemicals and sterilizing solutions
- Inert to fungus growth
Epoxies
Yes, we mold THERMOSET EPOXY molding materials. Epoxy molding materials exhibit very low viscosity when filling a mold and therefore offer the designer flexibility in encapsulating sensitive electronic components and in forming high-density pin connectors. Epoxy also have a very high surface hardness.
Typical applications: Coil encapsulations, Connectors, Sensors, Surface-mount resistor encapsulation (packaging), Fuse holders, etc.
Melamines
Yes, we mold MELAMINE molding materials.
Sheet Molding Compounds
Yes, we mold SHEET MOLDING COMPOUND (SMC) from all manufacturers
Ureas
Yes, we mold UREA molding materials
