Malleable thermoplastic composite materials are provided. More
specifically, malleable thermoplastic composite materials made from
thermoplastic polymers having low molecular weight and particulate
material are provided for malleable composites having high compression
set. Alternatively, malleable composite blends of two or more
thermoplastic polymers are provided wherein at least one thermoplastic
polymer has a low molecular weight. Further, the malleable thermoplastic
composites may be blended with high specific gravity particulate material
to form high specific gravity composites that exhibit malleable
characteristics.
