Avient’s Glasforms™ and Gordon Composites™ carbon fiber composite materials consist of
thermoset continuous fiber polymer rods, bars, laminates and custom shapes used in a variety
of applications that require superior technical characteristics.
Carbon fibers combined with vinyl ester or epoxy resin
create a composite material that, like all composites,
has higher performance properties than the individual
materials alone.

ColorMatrix™ Optica™
Specialty Toners for PC
Polycarbonate is used for the production of
automotive interiors and appliances to consumer
goods and electronics, replacing more traditional
materials such as glass and acrylic.
It is increasingly
becoming the most popular material of choice due
to its versatile characteristics and recyclability.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-01/SEM MCCB Phase Barrier Application Bulletin.pdf
These materials outperform nylon 6
and flexible PVC with better flexibility, lower moisture absorption, better insulation properties, and they are
RoHS compliant.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
Unlike flexible PVC, which loses flexibility
over time, Avient materials do not fail over the
MCCB’s service life (approximately 10 years).

Flame-retardant technology uniquely embedded
into the panel materials provides robust and
durable fire performance without the need for
additional sheets or coatings.
Weighing
significantly less than traditional materials like
wood, drywall, and framed wall assemblies, they
enable easier and faster installation.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
