First profiles of COC.


The first profiles made of Topas cyclic olefin copolymer Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC) is an amorphous polymer made by several polymer manufacturers. COC is a relatively new class of polymers when compared to polypropylene and polyethylene.  (COC See chip on chip. ) were extruded last January by Ensinger-Hyde, Washington, Pa., using five different grades of COC from Topas Advanced Polymers (formerly part of Ticona), Florence, Ky. Ensinger, which worked two years on this development, made samples of stock rods in 1- to 5-in. diam. and 1-in.-thick plates for distributor Boedeker Plastics Boedeker Plastics, Inc. is a plastic materials distributor & machine shop located in Shiner, Texas. General Information
Boedeker Plastics consists of two distinct parts ...
 Inc., Shiner, Texas Shiner is a city in Lavaca County, Texas, United States. The town was named after Henry B. Shiner who donated 250 acres for railroad right of way. As of the 2000 census, the city had a population of 2,070. . These stock shapes are intended for machining prototypes of injection molded optical, electrical, and medical parts. Extruding the material into large profiles was done with a standard extrusion process using care to retain the material's clarity and prevent voids.
