Design optimization, predictive tools, and best practices for working with thermoplastic composite sandwich panels Home // Get to Know Composite Sandwich Structures The performance of these fiber reinforced composite panels can be optimized by adapting panel thickness, core density, and skin configuration to achieve desired properties.

Maxxam™ formulations are based on polypropylene and polyethylene resins and can be filled and reinforced to satisfy the required performance characteristic. They can be blended with glass, minerals, impact modifiers, colorants and stabilizer systems, providing customized solutions to meet specific application needs. High density polymer-metal composites are an ideal alternative to lead and other traditional metals

It is specially formulated for polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and Nylon.  Avient Sustainable Fiber Additives: include bluesign® SYSYEM PARTNER colorants and recycled fiber solutions with Global Recycle Standard (GRS) certifications, and biodegradable fiber solutions with EN13432 certifications. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

GlasArmor panels made with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites provide excellent ballistic stopping power for the MPS while meeting the requirement of being lightweight and portable. They are constructed from layers of 0°/90° woven E-glass fiber reinforcements combined with a proprietary resin system in a continuous pultrusion manufacturing process. The composite material is 25% the weight of comparable steel structures, and also weighs significantly less than concrete, making them easily deployable in the field.
