NEUSoft™ Thermoplastic Polyurethanes

SPORTING GOODS BRAND I N J E C T I O N M O L D E D B A S E B A L L B A T • Meet BBCOR safety standard for coefficient of restitution • High stiffness and toughness to hold up to ball impacts without excessive vibration • Variable feel, sound, and “sweet spot” for user preference • Provided a unique solution allowing the bat to be manufactured with injection molding instead of thermoset layup process to lower production cost • Designed unique two-part barrel and handle construction which enables tailoring weight and balance performance to player Complēt™ Long Carbon Fiber ETPU Composite KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?

Composition Novaloid, or Phenolic fiber, is a thermoset organic fiber produced from a phenolic novolac resin. Types • Multi-filament • Spun Key Features • Excellent flame resistance • Excellent chemical resistance • Can withstand short-term heat exposure in temperatures > 1000C • Excellent thermal insulator • Low smoke and combustion toxicity • Very compatible with thermoset & thermoplastic resins Disadvantages • Low tensile strength • Low tensile modulus • Affected by oxidizing acids (i.e.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Lightweight • High strength & stiffness • Excellent fatigue & impact resistance • Exceptional strength-to-weight ratio • Strong adhesive properties • Chemical and corrosion resistance • Reduced NVH compared to metals • Rapid cycle times • Low VOCs VALUE SOLUTION • Replaces metal without sacrificing strength • Reduced vehicle weight improves fuel economy, reduces energy consumption • Selective reinforcement adds strength in high stress areas • Easily integrated & streamlined manufacturing process • Easy bonding to various materials • Increases structure & puncture resistance • Can be used in injection and compression overmolding operations • Enables thin-walling and material reduction by adding reinforcement to traditional materials • Able to be re-formed, reused, recycled USES & APPLICATIONS • Interior structural reinforcement such as walls, load floors, headliners, door panels, storage, storage lids, and trim pieces • External body panels • Front end and door module reinforcement • Service access cover reinforcement • Interior hatch covers GORDON COMPOSITES™ & GLASFORMS™ THERMOSET COMPOSITES Gordon Composites™ and Glasforms™ thermoset composites are made with proprietary resin/ fiber reinforcement technologies.

The composite material used to make this part includes a custom-formulated thermoset epoxy resin, which also has good corrosion and chemical resistance.

We serve multiple industries from healthcare and transportation to packaging and beyond with colorants and additives for thermoplastics, TPEs, high temperature resins, and fluoropolymers along with dispersions for thermosets.

PolyOne offers a single channel for thermoplastic and thermoset resins used in medical applications, and customers can also leverage expanded healthcare-focused resources to accelerate product development and regulatory compliance.
