Within this new platform, our range of engineered composite technologies is virtually unmatched, spanning pultrusion, pull winding, CRTM™ panels, sandwich panels, and multilayer laminates in both thermoset and thermoplastic resins,” said Matthew Borowiec, general manager, PolyOne Advanced Composites. Thermoset offerings include:  •    Carbon and glass fiber continuous forming processes including pultrusion, filament winding and pull winding for rods, tubes and profiles •    Continuous Resin Transfer Molded (CRTM™) sandwich panels •    Bar stock, laminates and hybrid composite springs

Created a process with L’Oréal to overcome PCR coloring challenges and simplify recycled resin coloration for global consistency Discover our digital color prediction service for polyolefins and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins that uses sophisticated technology to illustrate the color possibilities or limitations of certain types of PCR.

Maxxam™ REC recycled polyolefins are formulated with 25-100% recycled resin from post-industrial recycled (PIR) and post-consumer recycled (PCR) sources. Maxxam™ BIO bio-based polyolefins are formulated with 15-100% bio-based resin and/or natural filler from renewable plant sources.

Additional featured solutions include Colorant Chromatics™ UV Laser Marking Additives, Colorant Chromatics™ Conductive Formulations, Colorant Chromatics™ ECTFE / ETFE Colorants, and PEEK and PEI-Siloxane (SILTEM™ resin*) Colorants & Pre-colored Solutions SILTEM™ resins is a trademark of SABIC

The resin inherently offers heat resistance, but for some demanding applications, it also needs the addition of flame retardants to increase its resistance to flammability. This is particularly advantageous for producers seeking more flexibility in managing plastic material inventory, giving them the ability to stockpile large quantities of virgin or recycled resin while ordering flame-retardant concentrates as needed for individual projects.

These nylon formulations contain 100 percent PCR resin, and are available in both PA6 and PA66 grades with various levels of glass fiber and mineral reinforcements. The platform connects brands and manufacturers with trusted suppliers to fast track the process of sourcing, evaluating, and purchasing Oceanworks Guaranteed resins, yarns, components, and products.

The use of 2K (two-component) molding – in which the base resin is injected and allowed to set up for a short time, and then is overmolded by injecting the TPE – streamlines the manufacturing process. It required a high temperature and a strong injection pressure to bond to the acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) substrate, which caused the resin to deform.

Here, continuous fibers, such as glass or carbon, are pulled through a thermoset resin bath, such as epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester, and then formed into a desired shape using a die. The resin is then cured, resulting in a strong, lightweight, and durable composite product. Materials and processes such as fiber type, fiber volume, resin type, and surface veils and treatments can be engineered to meet specific properties and application requirements.
