Stress Photonics new FlexCoat™ Rubber Transfer Sheets...

These thermally activated conformable transfer sheets offer a simple clean method for applying thicker traditional photoelastic polymers. The rubber sheet acts not only as a mold of the desired coating but also provides a pliant non-stick transfer sheet for easy handling during application. Because the polymer can be handled at much earlier stages of polymerization, the window of opportunity for coating a part is greatly increased.
