Advanced Composites Explained Complēt™ MT Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Piranha Propeller Complēt™ MT Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon 6 used in watercraft propeller blade

Strategically positioned unidirectional tape inserts overmolded with Complēt™ long glass fiber reinforced nylon composite provide fatigue endurance to allow part reduction for office chair Advanced Mobility Composite Structures Long glass fiber reinforced engineering resins with enhanced mechanical properties that obtain metal- like structural capabilities.

ThermoBallistic thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems, offering a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins. GlasArmor thermoset panels are constructed from layers of woven e-glass fiber reinforcements with a proprietary resin system. For example, incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin into composite materials such as unidirectional tape can help reduce the carbon footprint of those composites.

With a weight savings of more than 50% compared to plywood, these continuous-fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite sandwich panels offer boat manufacturers a lighter, more efficient alternative to traditional marine construction materials. Hammerhead Marine Composite Panels are made from continuous glass-fiber reinforced thermoplastic face sheets and polyester foam cores. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

Composite Brace Saves Weight, Improves Structural Integrity The automated pultrusion process fabricates continuous glass or carbon fiber-reinforced, constant cross-section profiles with consistent, uniform properties.  For the brace, Avient's engineering team developed and analyzed three options: a unidirectional, hybrid carbon and glass fiber profile; a unidirectional carbon fiber profile; and finally, a profile made with both a unidirectional carbon fiber and a transverse engineered fabric, which had the advantage of minimizing any potential cracks from propagating.

ThermoBallistic™ thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with layers of 0°/90° unidirectional E-glass fiber reinforcements with polyolefin-based resin systems. Glass Content Avient’s reinforced composite technologies use carbon, glass and aramid fibers with custom formulated thermoset or thermoplastic resins in continuous forming processes

Homepage // News Center // Bettcher Industries Replaces Aluminum Motor Housing with Avient Complēt™ Long Fiber Composite Avient identified its Complēt™ long glass fiber reinforced nylon composite as the right material to deliver the required strength and enhanced performance. This project is an excellent example of how the strength and toughness of Complēt long fiber composites offer a light weight solution and an exceptional substitute for metals across many industries.

CLEVELAND – PolyOne today announced it will unveil Hammerhead™ Marine Composite Panels at the Composites and Advanced Materials Expo (CAMX) in Orlando, Fla. next week. Hammerhead Marine Composite Panels consist of thermoplastics, continuous glass-fiber face sheets, and foam cores. PolyOne Advanced Composites will feature Hammerhead Marine Composite Panels at CAMX (booth R12), December 12–14.
