This solution permits
black and dark color polymers to be detected by
near infrared (NIR) automatic sorting equipment,
enabling subsequent recycling.
The formulation used enables
black packaging of various polymers to be sorted
into the correct polymer stream, and sent for
recycling instead of landfill or incineration, which
is a key requirement of the circular economy
system.
Avient works with leading equipment
and technology partners to achieve best-in-class
solutions for circular economy requirements.
