The design team reached out to long-term supplier Avient GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers to help develop a customized solution. In addition, the manufacturer was able to operate at a slightly faster cycle time and with a reduced scrap rate. In addition, the more efficient impact modifier saved the company nearly $40,000 a year in processing costs.

This method is used for various polymers, including long fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFRT or LFT). In addition, it is equally important to look beyond the datasheets to more fully understand the application demands, working environments, and product life expectations to use and optimize the material for your specific application.

It’s portable enough to be airlifted into remote sites and provides quick protection for troops with no additional equipment support needed. They are constructed from layers of 0°/90° woven E-glass fiber reinforcements combined with a proprietary resin system in a continuous pultrusion manufacturing process. These panels successfully encapsulate the bullet, preventing harmful ricochets and providing additional safety to the warfighter.

The charts above compare 30% short glass-fiber filled samples and show a noticeable difference in the moisture uptake behavior of PK versus to PA6 & PA66. However, Avient has overcome this challenge and achieved vibrant colors like any other resin. Similar to other resin systems, the addition of a color pigment may lower mechanical properties.
