Textiles & fibers

Our fibers help manufacturers develop new generations of high performance clothes and accessories.

A partner of manufacturers in the textile, clothing and personal protection markets, Solvay offers consumers ever greater comfort in their day-to-day lives through a wide range of fibers, yarns, plastics and various other solutions (polymers, phosphorus products and solvents).

Our solutions bring performance and cosmetic benefits that are opening a new generation in textiles. We help develop clothes and accessories, but also ropes, carpets, sportswear and many other types of textile & fiber applications, which are fireproof, anti-stain, anti-bacterial, robust, light and flexible. We have for example developed intelligent yarns with thermoregulation properties that improve blood microcirculation when in contact with the skin.

AvaSpire® AV-621

AvaSpire® AV-621 is an unreinforced polyaryletherketone (PAEK) that offers improved ductility and impact strength relative to PEEK while retaining most of the key performance attributes of PEEK. The AV-621 grade is the low melt flow (higher molecular weight) analogue of the medium flow grade AvaSpire® AV-651 that is tailored primarily for injection molding applications as well as film extrusion. AvaSpire® AV-621 resin is suited for a variety of processing methods including compression molding, stock shape extrusion, as well as injection molding. AV-621 has been formulated for applications requiring a balance of chemical resistance and mechanical strength along with good part aesthetics, thereby bridging the performance gaps within the ultra polymers space. These and other properties make this resin well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, semiconductor, electronics, chemical processing, and other industries. AvaSpire® AV-621 is easily fabricated using conventional thermoplastic melt processing techniques and standard equipment. The resin has a uniform opaque appearance with a beige color similar to that of PEEK.

Hyflon® MFA® 1041

Hyflon® MFA 1041 is a high extrusion speed resin specifically designed for insulation for plenum-rated LAN cables. MFA 1041 delivers superior electrical performance in addition to its excellent fire characteristics, physical properties, and processing. The unique chemical structure of MFA provides the superior properties necessary for the increasingly demanding telecommunications industry. Cables manufactured with MFA 1041 have met the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) Category 6 standard. The extremely low attenuation of MFA 1041 makes it a logical choice for the developing Augmented Category 6 standard. Cables made from MFA 1041 have met the fire performance requirements called out in NFPA 90a ("Standard for Air- Conditioning and Ventilating Systems"). Hyflon® MFA 1041 is not recommended for heavy wall applications where significant thermal stress crack resistance is required.
