Some common manufacturing options are pultrusion, resin injection, resin transfer molding (RTM) and filament winding. In the most basic sense, a fiber is combined with resin. Ballistic panels are made from multiple layers of woven fiberglass, then encapsulated with a resin system.

We’re delighted to be introducing our first recycled-content long fiber composite material in a planned larger portfolio based on recycled resin,” said Eric Wollan, General Manager for Long Fiber Technologies at Avient. Historically, it has been a challenge to source streams of recycled resins that are compatible with the pultrusion process used to manufacture long fiber composites. Levels of post-consumer resin content vary within the offerings, which allows end products to meet different performance and sustainability requirements.  

ThermoBallistic thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems, offering a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins. GlasArmor thermoset panels are constructed from layers of woven e-glass fiber reinforcements with a proprietary resin system. For example, incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin into composite materials such as unidirectional tape can help reduce the carbon footprint of those composites.

The Complēt™ REC portfolio consists of long fiber reinforced composites incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) nylon 6 resin, post-industrial recycled (PIR) nylon 66 resin, and PIR thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) resin. These resin sources provide sustainable options for applications that require excellent structural and toughness capabilities while offering comparable performance to standard long fiber materials.

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoset composites combine high molecular weight resins with glass or carbon fibers. The resin has a lower tensile modulus than the reinforcement and will fracture at lower loads in this direction. Fiber volume is the ratio of fiber to resin in a composite structure.
