Density is measured in grams per cubic centimeters (g/cc) with every 0.01 g/cc reduction resulting in less material used. A decrease in density of just 0.01–0.02 g/cc can yield 4% annual savings in material consumption, while generating a 4% increase in extruder productivity. For example, in several instances processors ran Excelite E-versions, which allowed longer production run times and less material plate-out on extruder die lips.

OEMs and tier-one suppliers strive to reduce vehicle weight and incorporate more recycled materials into parts. Plus, they can support OEMs in complying with the ELV Directive targets for incorporating recycled materials. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

These high-performing materials deliver high- temperature performance, mechanical integrity, and excellent impact resistance for demanding engine applications. These robust materials also incorporate heat stabilization to maintain tensile strength and tensile elongation properties for long- term thermal aging up to 120°C. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

THE SOLUTION Leveraging decades of experience creating customized composite materials for archery bow limbs and other high-performance applications, the engineers at Avient worked closely with WillowWood’s special products team to identify a solution. Beyond material selection, the collaborative team also identified a proprietary design and finishing process that could be achieved with the tooling already in place at WillowWood’s Ohio-based manufacturing facility. THE IMPACT Finding a material that could enable just the right amount of flexibility as well as necessary stability was critical to meet the needs of WillowWood’s target market.
