In this episode of Innovation Discussed, Mark is once again joined by Goodfellow materials experts, Dr Aphrodite Tomou and Adam Sells, to have his eyes opened to the world of advanced materials. This week, they demystify the Polymer Pyramid, a simple but powerful framework for navigating the vast landscape of plastics. Aphrodite and Adam explain how this model organises polymers into three performance tiers, Commodity, Engineering, and High-Performance, and why understanding this structure is crucial for balancing cost and capability in any scientific application. From the everyday utility of Polypropylene to the extreme resilience of PEEK, discover how the Polymer Pyramid can help you make smarter material selections.
