Complēt™ Long Fiber Reinforced Structural Thermoplastics Complēt™ Long Fiber Reinforced Structural Thermoplastics Long fiber reinforced nylon 6 or 66 thermoplastics formulated for more consistent performance in moisture-rich conditions.

Debuting at JEC World is a new formulation of Polystrand™ continuous-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites made from greater than 95% post-consumer recycled PET (rPET) resin. Thermoplastic Composites: Complēt™ long-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite formulations

reSound™ REC Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers can help brand owners create sustainable end-user products, with formulations utilizing up to 83% recycled content for consumer and transportation industries. Complēt™ Long Fiber Reinforced Structural Thermoplastics are injection molded composites with structural properties, able to replace metal and lightweight parts. Andrew Donovan, Avient Technology Group Lead, will discuss recycled content thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) for automotive interiors at the Circular Economy Summit on Wednesday, November 8, from 11:50 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Palacio de Iturbide, room 3.  

First-generation Gravi-Tech Density Modified Formulations were developed to mimic the luxurious look, weight, and feel of die-cast or machined metals by using select metallic fillers and thermoplastic resin. Both are developed to offer comparable performance to conventional density-modified solutions but with less reliance on virgin thermoplastics, supporting the circular economy and reducing carbon footprint relative to fossil feedstock resin alternatives.  Formulated using engineered thermoplastic resins and select metallic fillers, they offer densities similar to traditional metals while providing design and processing flexibility.

CLEVELAND – December 9, 2024 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialty and sustainable materials solutions and services, announces the addition of flame-retardant (FR) grades manufactured without intentionally added PFAS-based raw materials to its portfolio of Complēt™ PKE Long Fiber Reinforced Polyketone Thermoplastics. These 30% or 40% long glass fiber (LGF) reinforced thermoplastics have a flammability rating of V-0 at 1.5 mm in both black and natural grades. Beyond performance, various eco-conscious aspects of these long fiber thermoplastics (LFTs) bring additional value to the market.

New continuous reinforced thermoplastic composite capability establishes PolyOne at the forefront of “next generation” composite solutions The second acquired business, Polystrand, operates on the leading edge of continuous reinforced thermoplastic composite technology, a next generation material science that delivers the high strength and lightweight characteristics of composites, further enhanced with the design flexibility to form more complex shapes. We also have now immediately established PolyOne as a leading innovator and producer of continuous reinforced thermoplastic composite technology.
