Avient’s Composite Heat Release is a groundbreaking, patent-pending material innovation that can help manufacturers achieve lighter, stiffer barrels. Continuous fiber-reinforced composites in standard and custom shapes & sizes Explore material solutions for demanding, rugged applications.

Easy to transport, handle and store, this packaging system improves material handling safety while still efficiently delivering the high quality colorant stored within it. The PlanetPak’s shape means that it can be placed edge-to-edge for more efficient use of space during transport and storage, unlike cylindrical drums and pails. PolyOne Corporation, with 2013 revenues of $3.8 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

OVERMOLDING WITH POLYSTRAND CFRTP INJECTION/COMPRESSION MOLDING • Design flexibility • Complex shapes • Fast cycle times POLYSTRAND CFRTP • Impact resistance • Strength & stiffness • Light weight PROCESS DESCRIPTION Polystrand CFRTP materials are integrated into the molding process in a few simple steps, allowing you to add lightweight, localized reinforcement without compromising cycle times or shape complexity. PROCESSING While selecting the right material combination is critical, understanding how to process the materials is equally important. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

The collaborative design approach, from the initial consulting phase, through the translation of ideas into color, shapes, effects, to the final phase of prototyping and sampling, accelerates and streamlines the product development process. Visit our global network of Innovation Centers to discover existing materials or new formulations that will boost performance and processability in your application.

Available in small or large volume quantities, these colorants are suitable for a range of applications including insulation, film, tubing and profile shapes, wire and cable jacketing, and injection molded parts. Smarter Materials™ High Performance Thermoplastics: eBook

Avient not only provided suitable material, but also extended invaluable assistance to ensure a successful transition. THE SOLUTION Moving away from machining, the Frog Legs team embraced injection molding, enabling them to create more intricate shapes. With an aluminum hub, the dissimilar materials never fully bond and can slip.
