Combined with the design and manufacturing advantages of injection molding, long carbon fiber composites simplify the re-imagination of components and devices that have demanding performance requirements. 

The new HFFR grades also exhibit good ultraviolet (UV) resistance performance and excellent processability for extrusion molding.

Broadening Avient’s portfolio of protective materials, these compression molded panels made with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems offer a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins.

Broadening Avient’s portfolio of protective materials, Polystrand™ ThermoBallistic™ ballistic-resistant composite panels are compression molded panels made with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems that offer a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins.

Similar to prime density modified grades, these new materials can be extruded, molded, calendered, or thermoformed into complex designs without expensive tooling.

Now marketed under the Ruger® ARX® line of ammunition, the projectiles feature a patentpending flute design molded from Gravi-Tech™ High Density Composite material.

Avient will also feature Complēt™ R long-fiber-reinforced composites for injection molding that incorporate from 50% to 100% post-consumer recycled nylon 6 reclaimed from end-of-life fishing nets.

Complēt MT proved material performance success through extensive Mold Flow and FEA simulations to prove concept without prototyping and minimize development costs
