These specialty polymers are formulated to meet UL flame rating standards while also providing anti-yellowing performance, protection from chemicals and outstanding clarity. Favorable market forces are combining with our leading portfolio of materials and services in flame-retardant innovation to give customers a convincing value proposition,” said Jim Mattey, marketing director, Performance Products and Solutions at PolyOne.  As a result, we are at the forefront of helping LED lighting manufacturers innovate by increasing performance and durability, expanding design options, and streamlining production.”

But we’re committed to leading the industry by offering sustainable options even in our performance-critical materials like long fiber composites.” Complēt™ R nylon 6 long fiber composites provide stiffness, strength, and toughness performance on par with standard nylon 6 long fiber formulations using virgin resin, giving these materials the structural capability necessary to be used as an alternative to metals. Levels of post-consumer resin content vary within the offerings, which allows end products to meet different performance and sustainability requirements.  

In addition, they maintain performance at reduced wall thickness and are easily colorable. This growth will, in turn, drive the demand for high performing wire and cable materials.

The new grades for automotive interior applications are formulated with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, offering a more sustainable TPE option with comparable performance to traditional TPEs. These materials enable automotive OEMs and Tier 1s to satisfy performance needs and advance their sustainability goals,” said Matt Mitchell, director, global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports  

These formulations feature nylon 6 and 6/6 with delayed moisture absorption, which prolongs the effectiveness of their structural performance in moisture-rich environments. When manufacturers wanted to quell performance concerns by limiting moisture absorption for nylon 6 or 6/6, the only options were less hygroscopic and more costly specialty nylons,” said Eric Wollan, general manager of Avient’s long fiber technologies.
