Because composites combine resins with different types of fiber reinforcement, and can be manufactured using a variety of processes, the possibilities are nearly endless. When are advanced composites used? Glass fiber-reinforced polyester is the most prevalent composite used in boats and ships while aramid fiber reinforcement is used in key areas of high-performance sailboats, such as the bow and keel sections. 

There is also a shift from polypropylene (PP) to high-density polyethylene (HDPE) closures, where post-consumer resin is more readily available. Use additive and process technologies to manage odors Limit the amount of PCR used  

Complet™ REC solutions provide long fiber-reinforced composites are now available in recycled nylon and TPU formulations  Polystrand™ R continuous fiber thermoplastic composites enables lighter weight reinforcement with recycled PET Paint replacement technologies, including Artisan™ ABS portfolio and Molded-In Color Metallic

PCC and GCC are used as fillers in polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. Kaolin, or white clay, is an aluminum silicate used in materials such as ceramics, paint, rubbers and plastics. Talc is a platy mineral widely used in polypropylene, polyethylene and polyamide to improve stiffness and other properties.

material offerings to the highest levels on the performance spectrum of composites and engineered fibers." The ultra-lightweight specialty fiber is 15 times stronger than steel and is used in demanding applications such as ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure, renewable energy, industrial protection and outdoor sports.  The Company uses both GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.

Smartbatch™ FX for Paint Replacement Avient Expands Long Fiber Composites Portfolio Using Recycled Content OnForce™ Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene Composites

Like all Avient’s fiber concentrates (a.k.a. masterbatches), they are typically incorporated into the fibers using spin-dying technology during yarn manufacturing. Enhance the properties of spun-dyed polyester, polyamide and polypropylene Enhance the properties of spun-dyed polyester, polyamide and polypropylene

Whether used for vascular procedures, intravenous short- or long-term medical care, indwelling or intermittent urinary management, or other specialty uses, a catheter’s design requires precision. Since they can be made from various materials, choosing the best material for the desired use requires understanding the functional, safety, manufacturability, and essential performance needs.   Find out which materials make sense for your products, no matter where they’re used

The Company uses both GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures. Avient’s chief operating decision-maker uses these financial measures to monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company and each business segment and to allocate resources. They use words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial condition, performance and/or sales.
