Masterbatches are based on specific resins from several major producers. High-temperature colorants for polyphenylsulfone resin Learn about high-performance thermoplastics that surpass commodity and engineering resins

The resulting custom-formulated materials – both TPEs and thermoplastics – will be based on Oceanworks Guaranteed* base resins. Oceanworks conducts third-party testing through its laboratory partners to confirm resins are contamination free and processing parameters are met. The marketplace offers 100s of ocean and averted plastic resins, textiles, and products from trusted suppliers worldwide.

Avient’s composite tapes combine thermoplastic resins with unidirectional and engineered fibers to create continuous fiber-reinforced composite materials that provide superior strength-to-weight ratio and high performance for reinforcement across a broad range of applications. The breadth of the materials includes Polystrand™ unidirectional tapes made with continuous glass fiber and an expanding variety of resins such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyketone (PK), polyamide (PA), and others, and Fiber-Line™ engineered fiber tapes, made using uniquely processed fibers including carbon, glass, and aramid. For example, incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin into composite materials such as unidirectional tape can significantly reduce the carbon footprint of those composites.  

Here, continuous fibers, such as glass or carbon, are pulled through a thermoset resin bath, such as epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester, and then formed into a desired shape using a die. The resin is then cured, resulting in a strong, lightweight, and durable composite product. Materials and processes such as fiber type, fiber volume, resin type, and surface veils and treatments can be engineered to meet specific properties and application requirements.
