The students were tasked with designing an automotive aftermarket part that prominently incorporates Avient's long fiber thermoplastic (LFT) materials for a sustainable lightweighting solution. 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 Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility  

The foundation of Avient Protective Materials is the renowned technology and globally admired brand of Dyneema®, the World's Strongest Fiber™.  carbon Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility

Reducing Carbon Footprint What is carbon footprint? This tool encourages investments in low-carbon & carbon-free technologies while increasing the visibility of, and encouraging accountability for, the impact of carbon emissions on the business. The plan includes a range of options, including repurposing scrap composite rods as fence posts, recycling of scrap glass, and recycling of composite finished goods.

Avient and Hexagon used Digimat to develop anisotropic long fibre material data for a molded connector rod. Compared to an isotropic modelling approach, Avient obtained realistic predictions with the Digimat anisotropic modelling approach for both the tensile and flexural tests of the connector rod.
