High strength-to-weight ratio Provides high impact and fatigue resistance They also offer over 2x higher impact properties than short fiber reinforced solutions, while maintaining impact properties in cold and demanding environments

The new container, to be made from an impact-modified polypropylene, needed good sidewall stiffness and excellent impact resistance. It also needed to have high clarity, which created a significant problem: existing materials provided clarity, but not the necessary stiffness. The Impact

Outdoor High Performance  Complēt™ & Onforce™ Long Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics are formulated for demanding applications that require high stiffness and good impact in structural and metal replacement applications.  These formulations offer a unique balance of temperature, impact and cost performance, while reducing the carbon footprint from the onset of a product life cycle. 

High-temperature, organic and inorganic pigments can be used to tailor your formulations. Impact Important information about the health, safety and environmental impacts of Avient products.

They combine high levels of stiffness, strength, and toughness together in a single material.   Within this overlapping image of a part that is pre and post pyrolysis (burning away of the resin) you can see the well-defined skeletal structure created by the long fiber material – imperative to the success of the high impact properties achieves Long fiber composites typically have similar impact performance at -60°F (-50°C) as they do at room temperature.

Edgetek™ PKE High Impact Formulations The Edgetek™ PKE High Impact (HI) series consists of specialty engineered, impact modified polyketone (PK) thermoplastics. These formulations provide superior chemical resistance, low moisture uptake, and outstanding high impact and wear resistance. Formulated to deliver high performance in chemical, fuel contact, and high moisture environments, these thermoplastics are useful in applications found in the industrial, electrical/electronics, transportation and powersports industries.
