Coloring polymers in any process gives a degree of freedom and flexibility that’s not possible with pre-colored polymers. Assuming that the choice between solid and liquid colorants is a black and white decision There’s actually also a third potential pitfall here: A processor who purchases one type of equipment (liquid-color dosing or solid-color feeders) may wrongly believe their operation cannot accommodate the other type of color technology.

The new fiber colorant technology combines ColorMatrix liquid concentrates and proprietary high-pressure metering equipment to enable late-stage color injection during melt extrusion spin coloring. Adding liquid color downstream minimizes color contamination, reducing clean out and color change time. In addition, these new solutions allow standard white polyester fiber producers with reactor spinning lines to produce colored products in-line, eliminating the need for a secondary aqueous dyeing process.        

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Excellent COF performance (both wet and dry) • Outstanding abrasion and UV resistance • Easily colorable • Custom formulations available to achieve specific performance properties • Injection moldable (can be overmolded) and extrudable • Retains properties and performance when immersed in salt water MARKETS & APPLICATIONS This grip-enhancing TPE is colorable and customizable to meet the look and functional requirements of a broad range of consumer applications. The material may be injection molded, overmolded or extruded, offering expanded design freedom for adding a touch of security and reducing slippage where water can otherwise make products slippery. • Consumer home goods, such as bath mats • Outdoor recreation equipment • Fishing gear • Water sports equipment PRODUCT BULLETIN 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 0 25 50 75 100 Initial 6 Month 6-Month Ocean Water* Immersion Study Hardness, Shore A (ASTM D2240) Tensile Strength, psi (ASTM D638) 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.
