CFRP materials are highly regarded for their superior strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, stiffness and durability. Due to the inherent corrosion resistance of thermoset resins, CFRP products do not rust or corrode and in turn have a longer product lifetime than typical metal materials.  The superior strength, low weight, corrosion resistance and ability to adhere to concrete make carbon fiber composites an excellent material for infrastructure applications that require strength and durability.  

GLS TPEs are generally non-abrasive and non-corrosive. Better corrosion resistance. Tough corrosion resistant material.

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites are prized for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness, durability, and resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and environmental exposures. By using composite materials for poles and other components, electrical utilities and telecom providers can: •    Reduce the need for part maintenance and replacement •    Simplify transportation to the job site and installation •    Enhance product performance with resistance to corrosion, heat, weather and flame

As a designer and manufacturer, you need both rigid and flexible materials that can stand up to weather and abrasion alike, resist chemicals and corrosion, reduce sound and vibration, and offer decorative and custom coloring options. Pipe, Fittings And Fluid Handling

TARGET APPLICATIONS Excelite additives are available for numerous foaming applications, such as profiles, siding, decking, molding and pipe. PRODUCTS APPLICATIONS DESCRIPTION/BENEFITS EXCELITE PF-1 PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard; Fine cell structure able to target low density: improves consistency and control over foaming process FOAM ADDITIVE-54 PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard; Finer cell structure than PF-1 promotes ultra smooth surface finish; improves consistency and control over foaming process PF-1E & FA-54E ADDITIVES PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard; Enhanced run time formulation reduces die lip build-up in PVC processes, leading to longer production run times FOAM ADDITIVE-33 CaZN formulations for PVC sheet, profile, or trimboard Promotes finer cell structure, higher cell density, and surface quality in CaZN PVC dryblends FOAM ADDITIVE-77 HDPE sheet & plastic lumber Industry-leading cell structure and cell density; achieves lower density without sacrificing quality; self-nucleating and able to increase extruder output rates up to 15% FOAM ADDITIVE-85 Endothermic foam or nucleating additive for olefin and styrene polymers; plastic lumber, sheet applications and food packaging products Can be used as a CFA or nucleating additive; nucleating capabilities promote fine cell structure and high cell density; achieves greater density reductions with more consistency and control FOAM ADDITIVE-37 HDPE sheet & plastic lumber Good cell structure and cell density in HDPE lumber; greater consistency and control over foaming process EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY • The process operator has full control of density • Minimizes product rejection due to unnecessarily high/low density • Production should consistently target the bottom of the density specification • Enables control over the reintroduction of regrind or reprocessed materials as a feedstock • Enables the consistent foaming of products using higher percentages of regrind • Carrier selection can promote longer run times, enabling increased line productivity through less plate-out or material build-up on die lips EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE SURFACE FINISH Excelite additives creates a fine, consistent cell structure within the extruded polymer, which determine the surface roughness. EXCELITE VS POWDER • Enables a greater level of density control, through consistent distribution in the polymer • Simplifies and optimizes resin compounding capabilities (PVC dry blends) • Enables greater control over foaming and expands processing window when re-introducing regrind • Clean and highly accurate dosing process, with fewer of the health and safety concerns that can become apparent with powder CFAs EXCELITE VS PELLET • Being significantly more concentrated, Excelite additive enables lower total cost to foam • Can achieve lower density, less carrier influence • Finer and tighter cell structure through better additive distribution • Improved linear consistency of cell structure as ColorMatrix pumps continually meter output, giving greater stability over material dosing • Improved plant working capital as lower let down ratios means less material is consumed and reduces inventory holdings TECHNICAL SUPPORT • Avient has a market leading service team which understands foaming processes, we assist customers to deliver performance and production efficiencies with Excelite™ technology • Please contact your local Avient representative for additional information on our line of foaming additives www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.
