Polymaster

Comprehensive Database for Polymers and Polymer Composites
Besides metals, we at Matplus provide you with data for a wide variety of polymers and polymer composites with our PolymerVault. Extensive research was carried out from over 5000 manufacturer data sheets, numerous properties for more than 100 different base polymers were consolidated.

Three Levels for Optimal Material Selection

About Polymaster

Based on a former work on metallic materials which shows significant advantages in working with material data, the polymer data is divided into three levels. Starting with the master level which contains basis polymers and blends, in connection with parametric data tables. For example, you can model properties as a function of fillers or filler amount. The second level obtains the engineering materials which own a specific manufacturer process or composition. The data is one dimensional and simplifies the export to CAD-/CAE- or PLM-systems. The supplier level includes concrete data sheets of the supplier. Thus, we can provide material property data and safety information if they are applicable and available.

Benefits of Polymaster

Besides the already mentioned advantages, designers and developers have the possibility:

Choose Master Data Set

To choose a master data set at the beginning of the design process and decide for certain characteristics like fillers and amount later on.

Check Consistency

To check the consistency between master and manufacturer data for reliable material selection.

Parametric Models

To create models based on the parametric master data sets for precise material modeling.

Comprehensive Properties

In addition to mechanical and physical properties, the PolymerVault contains regulations for testing, nomenclature, environmental claims etc.

VDA Classification

All basis polymers sorted by the VDA 231-200 classification for easy navigation and comparison.

Compliance Information

Access to ECHA and GADSL candidate lists facilitates the choice of the perfect material for your application.
