KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Chemical resistance
• Maintaining high impact performance at low
temperatures
• Low moisture uptake
• Dimensional stability comparable to nylon
• Higher impact resistance than short fiber
alternatives
• Eco-conscious alternative to nylons
• More cost-effective solution than specialty
nylons

UL 94 V-0 flame rating at 1.5 mm
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
These materials are for use in applications
traditionally made of metal requiring moisture,
chemical and cold impact performance
requirements, including:
• Industrial – pipes, tubing, fluid management
• Electrical & Electronics – connectors,
battery components, battery housings
• Transportation – under-the-hood fuel/
chemical contact components, non-structural
interior components
• Oil & Gas – fuel pump components, fuel doors
PRODUCT BULLETIN
* Non-PFAS flame-retardant (FR) grades are manufactured without
intentionally added PFAS-based raw materials.

Composites are inherently lightweight alternatives
to metal and other materials, enabling
sustainability initiatives such as material reduction
and fuel economy improvements in many end
products.
TECHNICAL PROPERTIES
Continuous fiber-reinforced composites comparison: recycled PETG, virgin PETG and APET resin systems with
58% glass fiber reinforcement
CARBON FOOTPRINT COMPARISON TO ALTERNATIVES
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from cradle-to-gate production
Polystrand R 5840B made
with rPET has a lower carbon
footprint than traditional
polyester-based products;
44% lower than PETG and
31% lower than APET.
