PARIS– February 26, 2024 – Today, Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable materials solutions and services, announced it will highlight its breadth of composite solutions, including new ballistic-resistant panels, next week at JEC World 2024, the leading global trade show for composite materials and their applications.
Broadening Avient’s portfolio of protective materials, Polystrand™ ThermoBallistic™ ballistic-resistant composite panels are compression molded panels made with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems that offer a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins. ThermoBallistic panels provide structural bullet-resistant reinforcement to meet UL 752 Level 3 ballistic rating for interior and exterior architectural surfaces and components at a lighter weight than traditional panel materials.
Avient will also highlight its complete portfolio of advanced composite materials and engineered fiber solutions that offer high strength, weight reduction, and corrosion resistance for products across a broad range of industries and markets, including:
Thermoplastic Composites:
Thermoset Composites:
Engineered Fiber Solutions:
Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™
Avient is committed to helping customers meet sustainability goals in various ways through its composites portfolio. Composites are inherently lightweight alternatives to metal and other materials, enabling sustainability initiatives such as material reduction and fuel economy improvements in many end products. Thermoplastic recycled-content composites can further support a circular economy and help customers lessen their environmental impact.
Avient is exhibiting at JEC World March 5-7, 2024, in Hall 5, Booth F49, at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Park.
