Manufacturer
FIBER-LINE® works with a multitude of Carbon fiber manufacturers.
Traditionally, Carbon
fiber tows were used in thermoset composite applications but are being
incorporated into thermoplastics more and more.
Composition
The majority of production carbon fibers are made from the precursor
polyacrylonitrile (PAN).

Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life
and quality of food, beverages, medicine and
other perishable goods through high-
performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier
traditional materials like metal, glass and wood,
which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of
transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize
wastewater, improve the recyclability of materials
and advance a circular economy
• Composite solutions to support accelerated
growth of 5G / fiber-optic infrastructure
investment as the world demands greater and
faster connectivity
Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is
certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding
member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.
We will do so though our investments and focus on
sustainable solutions for high-growth markets, including healthcare,
consumer, packaging and composites/5G.
We will deliver for our stakeholders through multiple value creation levers—many of
which are unique to Avient:
o Demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare, and composites, together with Clariant
Masterbatch revenue synergies, that will drive 2021 revenue growth of 14% and long-term
growth in excess of GDP
o Clariant Masterbatch cost synergy capture will result in significant near-term benefit
In addition, we remain committed to increasing annual dividends in line with earnings growth and
opportunistically buying back shares, all while remaining modestly levered.
