Compounders form overseas alliance.


Two toll compounders of specialty engineering In systems engineering, Specialty Engineering includes the engineering domains that are not typical of the main engineering effort. Hardware engineering, software engineering, and human factors engineering may be used as major elements in a majority of systems engineering efforts  thermoplastics in the U.S. and Germany have formed what is intended to become a worldwide compounding alliance. Alloy alloy (ăl`oi, əloi`) [O. Fr.,=combine], substance with metallic properties that consists of a metal fused with one or more metals or nonmetals.  Polymers Inc. in Richmond, Va., and Kunststoffwerk Voerde in Ennepetal, Germany, have formed the Global Compounders Alliance (www.gcaplastics.com).

Resins are found in nature and are chiefly of vegetable origin.
