2 Product Description Grivory GV Grivory GV is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic engineering material based on polyamide with partially aromatic components. Grivory GV is glass-fibre reinforced and especially suitable for the production of technical parts by injection moulding. Grivory GV is characterised by: High Stiffness and Strength Good Dimensional Stability also after moisture absorption Grivory GV HT Product Presentation HAR-June 2004e Page 1

4 Which Metals can be Replaced by Grivory? Tensile Strength [MPa] Steel Ck45 Zinc ZnAl4Cu1 Brass CuZn37Pb Magnesium MgAl9Zn1 Aluminum AlSi7Mg Grivory GV-6H Grivory GV HT Product Presentation HAR-June 2004e Page 3

5 Grivory Offers Cost Savings due to Longer Service Life of the Tool Grivory GV Zinc Aluminum Magnesium Number of shots (x1000) Grivory GV HT Product Presentation HAR-June 2004e Page 4

6 Grivory can be Custom Colored Grivory can yield cost savings by eliminating finish painting or powder coating. Grivory GV HT Product Presentation HAR-June 2004e Page 5

7 Grivory Offers Improved Resistance to Chemicals that Attack Die-Cast Metals Salts Base Zinc Chloride Sodium Chloride Magnesium Chloride Sodium Hydroxide Grivory can yield cost savings by eliminating the need for protective coatings such as anodizing or oxide plating.

8 Grivory can be Metalized! Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD- process) Metal is evaporated under vacuum and forms a thin layer on the part. Most plastics can be plated using this approach. Galvanic Copper - Nickel Electroplating The most durable and desirable approach in which a galvanic copper substrate is deposited upon the plastics surface. Nickle and chrome layers are deposited upon the copper base to yield a durable high luster surface. Painting with conductive lacquer or urethane Painted with metal-powder filled "clear" paints for electromagnetic shielding. Typically done with copper, nickel and silver.

9 Metal Replacement with Grivory can Result in 30-50% More Profit Grivory enables cost-saving due to: Less work. No surface treatment. Lower freight charges. Longer tool service life. deflashing, sand-blasting, cleaning, annealing etc. is not necessary like painting or corrosion protection cost per unit weight / unit volume up to five times Grivory GV HT Product Presentation HAR-June 2004e Page 8

12 When Should Grivory be Considered for Metal Replacement? Structural rigidity and dimensional stability are required. Weight reduction. Reduce or streamline the number of manufacturing steps. Improve corrosion resistance. Significantly increase the service life of your tooling. Desire to save money via reducing the total manufacturing cost of the product.
