HYTAC® HTF | violet 

Copolymer syntactic foam

HYTAC® HTF (High Temperature and High Friction) is a copolymer syntactic foam and the ideal product for many “sticky” materials. This newly created formula can operate at higher temperatures while allowing lower heat transfer between the plug and sheet.  HTF promotes evenly distributed material throughout the entire part and is excellent for deep draw applications due to its high friction.

HTF’s unique formulation and microsphere size allows it to be polished to a mirror-like finish and has shown high performance when used in barrier and multi layer applications.

HYTAC® HTF offers these outstanding attributes:

  • Best friction for deep draw applications
  • Higher temperature tolerance
  • Excellent surface characteristics
  • Highly durable copolymer syntactic foam
  • Excellent for barrier film and multi-layer applications
