Understanding Corona Treatment of PP and PE - Polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) are everywhere—from packaging to medical devices—but their low surface energy makes printing and bonding a challenge. Inks bead up, adhesion fails, and quality suffers.

The solution? Corona treatment.
By exposing the polymer surface to a high-voltage electrical discharge, corona treatment introduces polar functional groups and increases surface energy. This simple step dramatically improves ink adhesion and compatibility with solvent-based, UV-curable, and water-based inks.

✅ Better adhesion
✅ Vibrant, durable prints
✅ Expanded ink options

Taking Care of the Community—Together.

The Gund Company recently wrapped up our enterprise-wide Food Drive, and the results were inspiring! Across participating facilities, our team collected thousands of food items, and TGC matched these contributions with an equivalent monetary donation to support local community organizations.

Food drives are more than just donations—they represent the power of unity and compassion. Every can, every box, every contribution helps provide immediate relief to families and strengthens the communities where we live and work.

Thank you to everyone who contributed. Your generosity proves that when we come together, we create meaningful impact.

The Hidden Challenge in Insulating Composites: Water Absorption

Water absorption can dramatically impact the performance and durability of composite materials, particularly in insulating environments. When moisture penetrates the polymer matrix and fibers, it disrupts the internal structure—resulting in:
• Weakened mechanical properties
• Reduced insulating effectiveness
• Lower reliability in demanding environments

Understanding and mitigating moisture effects is critical for industries like aerospace, automotive, marine, and electrical applications where precision and durability matter most.

Did you know? SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) and BMC (Bulk Molding Compound) are transforming industries from electrical and aerospace to oil & gas with their advanced composite capabilities.

Why they matter:
• Lightweight
• High-strength
• Corrosion-resistant

Although they share similar resins and reinforcements, each offers unique advantages depending on the application.

Our latest technical bulletin breaks down the differences between SMC and BMC — covering composition, processing methods, properties, applications, and cost — to help you choose the right solution for your next project.
