Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) History Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) was first polymerized in the 1950’s. Excellent strength to weight ratio

The graphs below illustrate the advantages that can be gained by incorporating CFRTP materials with traditional thermoplastics. The existing solution — reinforcing the latch area with a steel plate — added vehicle weight and involved additional manufacturing processes, increasing time and cost.  By replacing the metal plate and integrating the Polystrand material into the molded part, the supplier saved 8 pounds of overall vehicle weight.

Transportation segments including aerospace, automotive, commercial and recreational vehicles can benefit from our advanced composites – in place of traditional materials – to reduce weight, improve strength, and increase design freedom," said OEMs are successfully incorporating our thermoplastic composite technology and gaining value from our design expertise at every step of the product development cycle," said Advanced Composites portfolio offers both thermoplastic and thermoset composite solutions with exceptional strength-to-weight ratios.

Concrete walls, sandbags and other traditional ballistic structures are heavy, hard to move, and time-consuming to construct. Our GlasArmor panels offer excellent defense from enemy fire and explosive events at a significantly reduced weight compared with alternative structural components.

METAL REPLACEMENT COMBINES METAL’S STRENGTH WITH PLASTIC’S LIGHT WEIGHT CASE STUDY: COMPLĒT™ LONG GLASS FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITE Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. This was great for strength and performance, but the yoke was heavy, had long lead times for production, and was nearly $100 per part, making it ripe for a metal-to- plastic conversion. Spurred by the need for high strength and low weight, Avient quickly identified a Complēt™ long glass fiber nylon composite as a best-fit solution.
