Fiber-Line™ Specialty Engineered Thermoplastic Tapes
PRODUCT BULLETIN
Fiber-Line™ Specialty Engineered Thermoplastic
Tapes are composite formulations composed of a
wide range of fibers that are uniquely engineered to
enhance fiber and composite tape performance—
such as twisting and coating—and subsequently
custom manufactured into a tape cured with a
thermoplastic resin.
Engineered fiber thermoplastic
composite tapes provide excellent strength-to-
weight performance and creep resistance suitable
for demanding applications.
This manufacturing process enhances the
thermoplastic tape’s mechanical and thermal performance for specific application needs.

POLYSTRAND™ THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES
Tapes, Laminates & Panels
Polystrand™ high performance composite
tapes and laminates are made by combining
thermoplastic polymers and continuous fibers to
create continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic
(CFRTP) composites.
The material is recyclable and can be incorporated
back into traditional thermoplastic products and
processes.
Polystrand composite panels are made with
continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic face
sheets thermally bonded or adhered to traditional
core materials such as honeycomb, foam,
aluminum, and nonwovens as reinforcement.

With its advanced thermoplastic composites,
OEMs are successfully incorporating our thermoplastic composite technology and gaining value from our design expertise at every step of the product development cycle," said
Advanced Composites portfolio offers both thermoplastic and thermoset composite solutions with exceptional strength-to-weight ratios.
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-design-and-georgia-tech-students-team-innovate-polystrand-composites
The initiative, sponsored by Avient Design, a highly specialized group of industrial designers and project engineers at Avient Corporation, began in September 2024, focusing on mentoring students in designing with Avient’s Polystrand™ thermoplastic composite materials, leading to the development of a range of innovative and practical product concepts.
The six-week project is aimed to harness the distinctive properties of Avient’s Polystrand thermoplastic composites, including their strength, durability, and lightweight characteristics, to create cutting-edge designs for the sporting goods industry.
The final presentations showcased a diverse array of innovative product concepts that effectively leveraged the properties of Polystrand continuous glass-fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites.

CASE STUDY: POLYSTRAND™ THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES
THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES REDUCE WEIGHT, ADD
STRENGTH TO INDUSTRY-FIRST SNOWBOARD BINDINGS
Discover how Polystrand™ continuous fiber
reinforced thermoplastics can add lightweight
strength and durability to your application.
THE SOLUTION
When approached with a thermoplastic composite
technology that offered the freedom to add torsional
flex without compromising on strength and power,
the product innovators at Rome were seriously stoked.
And, unlike
thermosets, thermoplastic materials are able to be
easily thermoformed to the exact shape required before
inserting into the injection mold.
