Processing Aids Cesa™ Process Additives Improves manufacturing efficiency: increase output, reduce die build-up.

Avient’s reinforced composite technologies use carbon, glass and aramid fibers with custom formulated thermoset or thermoplastic resins in continuous forming processes GlasArmor™ Ballistic Resistant Panels and ThermoBallisitc™ Thermoplastic Panels

Hybrid materials range from 20-50% total long glass + long carbon fiber content (by weight) reinforcing a variety of resin systems including polyamides, rigid thermoplastic polyurethanes and polypropylene. Uncover the value of long fiber reinforced thermoplastics.

Unlike metal, thermoplastics can also be molded into complex shapes that fit tight spaces. With thermoplastic parts, there is rarely a need for secondary processing steps such as coating, welding, drilling or painting.
