Product Description
Polydicyclopentadiene) (PDCPD) is a new type of material in the field of polymer materials, PDCPD material has both high impact strength and high flexural modulus, at the same time, this kind of characteristics of engineering plastics is not available before, now more and more material engineers began to recognize, pay attention to, and use this new type of material..
Outstanding Feathers of PDCPD Material
Wide Usages of PDCPD Products
PDCPD (Polydicyclopentadiene ) does not contain any fiber-reinforced composite material, and the production process is gas-protected injection molding. It has been used in automotive parts, such as bumpers, spoilers, instrument panels, fenders, etc. It can also be used in shells with high strength requirements, such as battery pack shells.

Conclusion:
PDCPD materials and metal materials are isotropic ductile materials, which can be used for equal strength, equal stiffness structure design and strength conversion.
PDCPD materials have a high degree of freedom in design, and the overall stiffness of components can be further improved through shape design, and the use of PDCPD materials instead of mild steel can reduce weight by about 40%;
By optimizing the structural design, PDCPD material can be replaced with aluminum alloy material to achieve equal weight, with higher impact deformation resistance than aluminum alloy, and better structural and process implementation characteristics.
