VALUE SOLUTION
Improve safety and reduce costs with
Gravi-Tech formulations
When Gravi-Tech polymer metal composites are
substituted for lead, manufacturers can avoid
the regulatory, disposal and employee exposure
challenges associated with lead.
Several grades
of Gravi-Tech composites used for radiation-
shielding applications provide protections
similar to traditional lead-based materials, yet
these Gravi-Tech polymer-metal composites
are 37 percent lighter.
If
the material is shear-sensitive, consult the
material data sheet or processing guide for
instructions to set recovery time
• The cooling time should only be 1–2 seconds
longer than the screw recovery time, unless
dictated by dimensional stability or part
thickness
Minimize Clamp Pressure
This step is done to reduce the amount of energy
used by the machine

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-06/LFT Brackets Application Bulletin.pdf
Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) combine the
structural integrity of metals with the lighter weight
and cost-effectiveness of thermoplastic composites.
Weight Reduction
• LFT has lower density vs. metal, but still meets
structural performance requirements
• Lightweighting helps meet sustainability goals
related to lower fuel consumption and extended
vehicle range
Design Flexibility
• Injection molding allows for complex geometries
and part consolidation
• Advanced modeling and computer-aided
engineering (CAE) tools for long fiber composites
help validate and optimize part design
