https://www.avient.com/content/long-fiber-pultrusion-manufacturing-process
Avient PlastiComp Complēt™ & OnForce™ long fiber composite pellets are manufactured using a pultrusion process.
This fiber to polymer bond is key to obtaining optimum performance and having a true composite material.
The melt impregnated fiber exits the die as continuous composite strands which are cooled using water and/or air until solidified.

Continuous fiber composites add safety and security to the world we live in
Continuous fiber reinforced composites can be incorporated into traditional building materials and processes to add a new level of security.
Steel, precast and shock-absorbing concrete, ceramic matrix composites, and fiber-cement composites are all commonly used materials for blast and ballistic resistance.
