Maxxam™ formulations are based on polypropylene and polyethylene resins and can be filled and reinforced to satisfy the required performance characteristic.

Robust color concentrates for high-temperature resins.

Add antistatic and UV protection to products built from biodegradable resins.

Liquid at room temperature, these customized resins can also be toll blended for any application.

Complēt™ REC Long Fiber Reinforced Composites Incorporating Recycled Resin The Complēt™ REC portfolio consists of long fiber reinforced composites incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) nylon 6 resin, post-industrial recycled (PIR) nylon 66 resin, and PIR thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) resin. These resin sources provide sustainable options for applications that require excellent structural and toughness capabilities while offering comparable performance to standard long fiber materials. TECHNICAL BULLETIN Sustainability Spotlight PERFORMANCE COMPARISON Long fiber composites can be custom formulated with varying levels of recycled resin as well as varying levels of fiber reinforcement to balance your performance and sustainability goals.

THE SOLUTION Avient recommended Bergamid™ B70 G30H black TM-X PA 6 resin with 30 percent glass fiber reinforcement for its excellent mechanical properties and cost benefits. HellermannTyton decided to develop the seat securement part using injection-molded Bergamid resin in a standard black color. Further, the material costs for Bergamid resin are lower than those of bent steel plate.
