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
• Available in non-PFAS* formulations to achieve
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.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-06/AVIENT_TPEs and LSR eBook.pdf
For these reasons
alone, LSR is often the natural choice for everything from medical instruments to FDA Class III and USP Class VI
implant products, including catheters, gastric feeding tubes, heart valves and stents.
And in some
case, the lower production costs of TPEs make them an economical alternative for many single-use products and
pharmaceutical-grade delivery tubing.

These methods include:
PULTRUSION
• Fibers are impregnated with liquid thermoset
resins, then pulled through a heated die to cure
the resin and form the product
• This continuous, automated manufacturing
process creates constant cross section profiles
of any pre-determined length with consistent,
uniform quality and exceptional mechanical
performance
• Applications include rods and profiles of various
lengths and complexities, such as utility poles,
insulator core rods and structural beams
CONTINUOUS FILAMENT WINDING
• Combines the principles of filament winding with
pultrusion to create constant or tapered cross-
sectional tubing in precision sizes
• The unique axial and biaxial fiber orientation
provides flexural and tensile strength, as well as
crush and burst resistance
• Applications include lightweight shelter frames
and sporting goods components
CONTINUOUS RESIN TRANSFER MOLDING (CRTM™)
• Engineered core materials are sandwiched
between structural composite laminate face sheets
• Continuous composite sandwich panels feature
high specific strength and stiffness-to-weight ratio
• Applications include ballistic resistant panels,
truck floors and rail car doors
CONTINUOUS FIBER REINFORCED THERMOPLASTICS
• Fully recyclable tape, X-Ply™ (0°/90°), and other
multi-ply configurations with widths up to 10' wide
• Sandwich panels in unlimited lengths,
up to 6" thick and 10' wide
• High volume production capacity
• Applications include structural and aerodynamic
components in transportation, and reinforcement
of materials such as wood and metal
THERMOSET COMPOSITE LAMINATES & BARSTOCK
• Unidirectionally reinforced barstock, laminates
and hybrid composites engineered to maximize
deflection and fatigue resistance
• Customizable shapes and sizes
• Applications include archery bow limbs, flat
springs, prosthetics, sporting equipment
THERMOSET FINISHING OPERATIONS
• Customized finishing capabilities for barstock and
laminates including machining, water-jet cutting,
profiling/shaping, sanding, slitting, laminating,
molding and coatings
TESTING CAPABILITIES
• Mechanical – Flexural, tensile, compression, shear,
fatigue, impact resistance
• Physical – Specific gravity/density, Barcol
hardness, water absorption, void content,
resin/fiber content, dye penetrant, viscosity
• Thermomechanical – Coefficient of linear thermal
expansion, glass transition temperature, deflection
temperature, degree of cure, curing properties
• Electrical – High-voltage, low current dry arc
resistance of solid electrical insulation, dielectric
strength, water diffusion
