ADVANCED COMPOSITES
An exceptional alternative to traditional materials such
as wood, ceramic and metal, advanced composite
solutions enable designers to:
• Design lighter weight structural components for
increased lifetime performance and improved
fuel efficiency—higher strength-to-weight ratios
to exceed the structural performance of traditional
materials while significantly reducing weight—up
to 75% lighter than steel and up to 25% lighter
than aluminum
• Extend product lifetime to reduce part
replacement and decrease warranty expenses—
the corrosion, weather, flame and fatigue
resistance of composite solutions improve
component durability
• Reduce product lifecycle costs—the extended
product lifetime, along with the potential for
reduced installation time and cost due to the lighter
weight of composite solutions, significantly reduces
the associated cost over the lifetime of a part
• Lower energy costs—by leveraging a higher
strength-to-weight ratio, composite solutions
allow designers to engineer products that require
less energy or power during installation and use
• Increase competitive advantage—Avient
advanced composite solutions can be customized
to provide electrical insulation, thermal insulation,
radiopacity, low thermal expansion, flexural
memory and load damping, while delivering
desired performance and aesthetic specifications
