While Kevin White, the nonprofit’s founder, had a clear vision, he needed support to take his idea from concept to reality. Working with White, Avient helped to bring his invention to life– the USee™ vision testing system. Marine Corps,” said White.

Soft touch concentrates based on natural additives and colors can also be developed on request.

Silcosperse LM dispersions can also be combined with colorants without affecting the laser marking shade or effect. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Provides laser marking options of silicone materials • Eliminates the needs for etching and embossing • Faster and cleaner than pad printing • High contrast, permanent markings • Mechanical properties of the silicone matrix are maintained • Compatible with various types of lasers • Chemically resistant • Available in pre-colored or natural MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Silcosperse LM Laser Marking additive dispersions are suitable for a variety of applications within industries such as: • Consumer Goods • Electronics • Healthcare • Industrial • Transportation • Wire & Cable Typical applications and purposes include: • Traceability, UPC bar-coding, branding • Unique Device Identification (UDI), medical device ID’s • Serialization for pharmaceutical packaging • Safety taggants & equipment • Automotive components • Wire & cable part numbers or gauge size www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.

These sustainable materials are also customizable, but changes to color or formulation to achieve application-specific needs will require the product carbon footprint to be recalculated. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Negative, neutral, or low PCF • Available in 60 and 80 Shore A • Performs like traditional TPEs • Naturally opaque and easy to color • Suitable to injection mold, or overmold onto PP and PE MARKETS & APPLICATIONS The portfolio of reSound ultra-low carbon footprint TPEs is ideal for brand owners and manufacturers who prefer to use a more sustainable material in personal care, household appliance, consumer electronics, and consumer packaging applications.

The final solution was pre-colored to match the brand’s existing color palette and eliminate the need for secondary processing steps.

In addition to cost savings, replacing metal would enable the closure producer to provide its spirits customers with customization in density and color, because Gravi-Tech formulations are colorable, and can be tuned to replicate up to 5 times the density of traditional polymers.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Light Stabilizers for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens Non UV-stabilized fibers exposed to sunlight can suffer color fading and molecular changes that degrade their chemical and mechanical properties, leading to fraying and breakages. KEY BENEFITS Avient’s UV stabilizers for fibers provide the following benefits: • High active ingredient loading options available • Little or no effect on processing speeds so plant productivity can be maintained at the highest levels • Resistance to interaction with fertilizers, pesticides and bleaching agents in the manufacturing and end-use environment • Can be combined with colors and with other additives (e.g., flame retardants) into a single combination concentrate for convenience • Product guidance and technical assistance from our experts PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.

The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs.

Amosorb 4020R improves the aesthetics of recycled packaging in terms of haze and color, and also maintains performance levels irrespective of the level of rPET used, delivering consistent results at all levels of rPET; 25%, 50% and 100%.
