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. The 4- and 6-ply samples in the above graph were loaded in the transverse direction. The 4-ply sample here has similar tensile performance as the 4-ply sample in Figure 1, which is expected because the two samples contain an equal balance of 0- and 90-degree fibers.

This material was repeatedly subjected to severe impact during tests in which two iPhone 6/7 cases were dropped from an industry-standard range of heights, from 4 to 14 feet. Results showed Versaflex™ XP shock absorbing TPEs absorbed up to 10 percent more impact than TPU at drop heights of 4 – 8 feet, and over 25 percent more impact at 10 – 14 feet. +1 440-930-1988

All eight grades in the new series are also ISO 10993-4 and -5, REACH SVHC, and RoHS compliant. Avient Corporation (NYSE: AVNT), with 2019 pro forma revenues of $4 billion, provides specialized and sustainable material solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world.
