The resulting portfolio includes a diverse range of thermoplastic and thermoset continuous-fiber carbon and glass reinforced materials that offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratios as well as unmatched flexibility.
Thermoset offerings include:
• Carbon and glass fiber continuous forming processes including pultrusion, filament winding and pull winding for rods, tubes and profiles
• Continuous Resin Transfer Molded (CRTM™) sandwich panels
• Bar stock, laminates and hybrid composite springs
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-pioneers-new-ptfe-free-lubrione-internally-lubricated-formulations-chinaplas-2024
The initial portfolio comprises nine standard unreinforced and glass or carbon fiber reinforced grades, in which PTFE is replaced with alternatives such as linear and high density or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (LDPE/HDPE/UHMWPE).
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

FEATURES
• Created for
applications where
an untreated fiber
does not have the
ability to provide the
appropriate amount
of bonding
characteristics to
another material
• Provides adhesion to
another fiber or
substrate without
impacting other
performance
properties
• Improves adhesion
of the fiber to the
resin matrix it is
introduced into
• Enables industry
standard “burst”
tests or stringent
delamination
analysis
• Designed to achieve
vibrant colors for
safety, identification,
and aesthetics
• Specialized formulas
and binders adhere
the pigment to the
exterior of the
individual filaments,
while impregnating
deep into the fiber
bundle
• Available by Pantone
or RAL number
• Compatible with a
variety of composite
resins including
epoxy, polyurethane,
and polyethylene
• Stronger than
solution-dyed fibers
• Designed to add
lubricity and
temperature
resistance at the
filament level for
braided compression
packing
• Coating at the fiber
level versus the
finished braid
achieves higher %
level coating
• Fiber level coating
extends the life of
the braid and
reduces required
maintenance
• Various formulations
available
• PTFE, silicone,
graphite, and
mineral oil
• Created for high
performance fibers
that lack inherent
ultraviolet (UV)
resistance
• Coating impregnates
the individual fibers
with a specialized
resin for improved
UV protection
• Coating
enhancements
include UV inhibitors,
absorbers and
stabilizers
• Improves the
processing of the
product via reduced
filament snagging
and friction
• Low level water-
blocking finish for
any technical fiber or
textile substrate
• Provides water-
blocked strength
reinforcements for
dry cable designs
• Can absorb 5x to 15x
its weight in water
• Dust-free coating
imparts a very soft
fiber hand,
advantageous to
cable, rope, and
other textile
processes
• Patented technology
incorporates super
absorbent polymer (SAP)
suspended in a
proprietary resin matrix
• Used in the production
of ‘dry-dry’
telecommunications,
electromechanical,
seismic, umbilical and
power cables
• Can absorb up to 100x
its weight in water
• Creates a stable gel
when exposed to water
• Functionally replaces
flooding compounds,
filling gels, spun SAF
yarns, and water
blocking tapes
• Enables faster, more
economical and robust
cable manufacturing
• Increases durability and
abrasion resistance by
encapsulating filaments
in the fiber bundle
• Extends the life of the
product by reducing the
effects of friction and
yarn on yarn abrasion
• Protects the fiber
from degradation and
filamentation
• Ideal for high abrasion
and high friction
applications in a range
of fiber constructions
and environments
• Wicking refers to the
tendency of a yarn
or other fiber to draw
moisture into filaments
via capillary action
• Coatings designed to
prevent moisture from
wicking within and
between fibers and
strands
• Protects Wire or Optical
Fiber from damaging
effects of moisture,
which can cause a drop
in signal and attenuation
• Hydrophobic additives
used to promote and
enhance water
repellancy in industrial
applications
• Creates a waterproof
barrier that prevents
moisture from further
migration
• Applied at various %
levels to optimize for
water-proof ratings
• Designed to inhibit or
slow the spread of
fire/flame
• Coupled to fibers with
inherent flame and
thermal resistance to
boost performance
• Added to fibers with
weak flame resistance
to improve burn rating
