Avient announces new long fiber reinforced composites formulated with post-industrial recycled resin content, for applications including office furnishings and outdoor adventure gear. Formulations are available globally in black and natural color and in typical reinforcement percentages of long glass fiber, long carbon fiber, or hybrid combinations. Formulations also can use varying levels of post-industrial recycled resin content 

Fiber composites, more commonly known as fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, are polymer materials that have been reinforced with fiber. What are some common applications for polymer composites? Polymer composites can be thermoset or thermoplastic, so thermoset composites and thermoplastic composites are both types of polymer composites.

Liquid at room temperature, they can be poured, pumped, sprayed or cast, depending upon the formulation and its resulting product. Customizable formulations Non-Phthalate Plastisol Formulations

These water-based formulations can help achieve excellent marking on large diameter wires. Color concentrates formulated to meet the specific requirements of FEP applications. Colorants formulated to meet the specific requirements of FEP applications

Formulations typically feature a combination of exothermic and endothermic agents which, when under thermal decomposition, cause gas to evolve forming a cellular structure in the polymer matrix. Excelite additives are not subject to significant thermal exposure in the manufacturing process, so the formulations are optimized for decomposition during the customer process. PRODUCT BULLETIN EXCELITE - COMMON FORMULATIONS USAGE RATES Typically Excelite additives are dosed between 0.2% and 1.2% depending on the polymer, application and the density requirement.

Since polymers interact differently with laser energy, making them more or less suitable for laser welding, special polymer solutions can be used to enhance a polymer’s ability to interact with the laser energy and achieve a good weld. Ready-to-use formulations can be offered to solve any dispersion issues. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Manufactured at four ISO 13485 certified sites, providing global consistency and increased security of supply • Documented change control beyond CAS number, reducing risk of change • Available as additive concentrates, ready-to-use additive formulations or ready-to-use additive/ colorant formulations for different polymers REGULATORY SUPPORT • Raw materials tested to: - ISO 10993-1 and USP biological evaluation - European Pharmacopeia 3.1.3/3.1.5 (polyolefin) - USP (polyethylene) - ICH Q3D elemental impurities • Registered Drug Master File (Type III) and/or Device Master File • Food contact established with FDA/EU* APPLICATION BULLETIN * FDA/EU compliance information available upon request; exceptions may occur Healthcare use limitations apply—see below.
