PCC and GCC are used as fillers in polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. Kaolin, or white clay, is an aluminum silicate used in materials such as ceramics, paint, rubbers and plastics. Talc is a platy mineral widely used in polypropylene, polyethylene and polyamide to improve stiffness and other properties.

Like all Avient’s fiber concentrates (a.k.a. masterbatches), they are typically incorporated into the fibers using spin-dying technology during yarn manufacturing. Enhance the properties of spun-dyed polyester, polyamide and polypropylene Enhance the properties of spun-dyed polyester, polyamide and polypropylene

Complet™ REC solutions provide long fiber-reinforced composites are now available in recycled nylon and TPU formulations  Polystrand™ R continuous fiber thermoplastic composites enables lighter weight reinforcement with recycled PET Paint replacement technologies, including Artisan™ ABS portfolio and Molded-In Color Metallic

Our annual goal of reducing waste to landfill intensity by 3%, as well as annual incentives, are designed to encourage facilities to eliminate waste generation and identify beneficial uses for their remaining waste streams. Depending on the material, our composite and fiber solutions may run into challenges in finding outlets for waste to divert from landfill.

Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports

Two characteristics often used to compare the attributes of FRP materials are performance and design flexibility. The graph above shows the result of tensile load applied longitudinally to three laminate samples made with Polystrand™ continuous glass fiber reinforced polypropylene in 2-, 4- and 6-ply configurations, illustrated below. In general, the more fiber used in the structure, the higher the performance.
