Uses and Applications Compared to traditional steel used in concrete reinforcement and infrastructure applications, carbon fiber composites offer higher tensile strength, lower density and more versatility in end-use applications. These CFRP materials consist of thermoset continuous fiber polymer rods, bars and laminates used in a variety of applications that require superior technical characteristics.

Specifically, GlasArmor™ ballistic panels from Avient, constructed using multiple layers of woven fiberglass encapsulated with a proprietary resin system, weighing significantly less than concrete and steel. Avient and Southern States worked together to develop a modular design using GlasArmor ballistic panels. Level 8 specifies protection against a 7.62 mm rifle using a lead core, full metal jacket 0.308 caliber copper military ball.

In recent years, white opaque PET bottles for dairy applications have been under increasing scrutiny for the potential effects their mineral fillers can have on the recycle stream used to create fiber. Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses FOR MEDIA USE ONLY: To download a high-resolution image, please click here: FOR MEDIA USE ONLY

From bamboo to ceramic bisque to fabric, materials are being used to soothe the senses and soften our surroundings.

Materials and their impact on patient safety Increased use of Quality by Design (QbD) processes means that more consideration needs to be given to materials used and their impact on patient safety. Fingerprinting and routine batch testing of the raw materials used in MEVOPUR and REMAFIN-EP help detect changes and implement countermeasures. Declarations based on pre-testing of the ingredients we use to standards typically required for medical and diagnostic devices (biological evaluations ISO10993, USP , for class VI devices); and for pharmaceutical packaging and drug-contacting materials (biological evaluation USP, EP chapter and requirements USP and ICHQ3D extractable metals).
