Our high fiber volume, glass-reinforced thermoplastic panels and continuous resin transfer molding (CRTM) thermoset sandwich panels can streamline production and reduce system costs by eliminating assembly steps such as welding, drilling, bolting and riveting. Our composite panels are custom engineered by varying core thicknesses to increase or decrease stiffness; by varying core materials (including end-grain balsa, foam or engineered woods) to increase or decrease weight; by varying fiber to modify the stiffness-to-weight ratio; and by varying the base polymer to increase or decrease strength 4 point flex., 44 in. span, ASTM 7249 Note: Additional core materials available.

Avient offers colorants and additive masterbatches to color and enhance the properties of PP-R and PP-RCT while meeting technical and regulatory requirements of the pipe system end use. Antioxidant additives can help off-set this oxidizing effect. Avient also offers additive and color concentrates for other polymer grades and pipe system applications.

In addition, note patterns of grip adjustment or re- gripping, awkward postures, signs of fatigue and interfaces that cause frustration . While heavier weight can increase fatigue, if it is strategically and correctly placed, additional weight can improve dexterity . The team selected a long glass fiber-reinforced nylon material (Complēt™ PA66-LGF50 composite) for the shaft substrate to provide strength and to withstand hammering impact .

These materials utilize long fiber technology and exhibit enhanced shielding effectiveness versus standard short fiber conductive polymers.
