PRODUCT BULLETIN
PROCESSABILITY
MEETS PERFORMANCE
Polystrand™ advanced thermoplastic
composites combine high strength,
unidirectional, continuous fibers with
engineered thermoplastic resins to create
continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic
(CFRTP) materials that feature exceptional
strength-to-weight ratio and high impact
resistance.

We wanted to make it easier for our customers to
create durable piping systems by developing a plastic flapper
valve that could be easily fused onto polyethylene (PE) pipe.
THE SOLUTION
Gravi-Tech™ density-modified formulations are unique,
high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-based
alternatives to lead and other traditional metals.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-07/comptek-catalog.pdf
Developing the most appropriate formulation
for an application is our forte.
We have helped
customers develop parts that are:
• Wear-resistant: End products such as
bearings and sleeves that do not
require lubrication
• Conductive: Electrical and/or thermal
conductivity, in molded and extruded parts
• X-Ray opaque: Used for medical and dental
devices.
