Body Adhesive
This adhesive is a solvent containing the
parent resin of the parts to be bonded.
The
layout should be balanced and even, and should
position on non-cosmetic surfaces.2 Balanced
ejection is critical for Gravi-Tech filled resins.
Melt Temperature
The viscosity of Gravi-Tech materials is higher
than with NEAT resins due to the amount of filler
content.

Monomers make up the majority
of the variable cost of manufacturing the base resin.
The distribution of polymer resin is also highly competitive.
Hanna Resin Distribution from 1995 to 2000, when PolyOne was formed.

A second test was also carried out, which aimed
to demonstrate how recycled material can be
combined with vPET to produce bottles that are very
similar to bottles produced with 100% virgin resin.

PRODUCT SELECTION & INSTALLATION GUIDE
COMPOSITE
SPRINGS
VIBRATORY CONVEYORS
AND SEATING
FEATURE BENEFIT
• Exceptional fatigue resistance
• Corrosion resistance
• Creep resistance
Fewer failures for longer spring life, less frequent
replacement, and a more reliable end product
• High strength-to-weight ratio—less than half
the weight of steel
• High spring rate and deep deflection
• Custom designs to support off-axis loads
Stronger springs can mean fewer are needed
in an application for overall cost savings
• Common sizes in inventory
• Custom design and finishing capabilities
Fast, dependable service, ready-to-install product
and customization options to boost your
manufacturing efficiency
PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
Thermoset composite springs from Avient are
engineered with proprietary vinyl ester or epoxy
resins and unidirectional fiber reinforcement
technologies.
