Awards for Composites Excellence Showcase and Competition Announced at COMPOSITES & POLYCON 2006
The following is a paragraph taken from an article published on October 19, 2006 in St. Louis, Missouri by the American Composites Manufacturers Association.
The ACE for Technical Innovation for Corrosion Application went to the Daniel Company of Upland, Calif., for it's DanELAST Zero Leakage FRP Damper. Daniel's precision-engineered fiberglass reinforced plastic zero-leakage danELAST isolation dampers feature high corrosion resistant parts for air movement and controls. Dampers are fire retardant, corrosion resistant, and UV protected. All components are designed with replaceable parts that are easily disassembled for maintenance. Damper utilizes a specifically formulated elastomer with corrosion resistance equal to and/or superior to EPDM, Hypalon, and even Viton. No circumferential blade seals are required to achieve a full shutoff of the damper thus the weakest part is eliminated resulting in greater reliability.
