After delivering
polypropylene-based samples from the Maxxam™ FR line
for immediate trial, the Avient team also worked with
the manufacturer to help them determine the best pair
combination design.

These color and additive solutions are available as concentrates or ready-to-use pre-colored formulations in bio-based polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, styrenic resins and ABS.
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-launches-new-bio-filled-polymer-grades-fakuma-2021
The new reSound™ NF bio-filled grades are based on polymers such as polypropylene (PP) with 15 to 20 percent bio-based filler.
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-launches-additional-resound-bio-based-tpes-formulated-renewable-plant-derived-content
Eight of the new grades can be overmolded on polypropylene (PP) and the ninth grade bonds to both PP and polyethylene (PE).
https://www.avient.com/news/cosmetic-packaging-reimagined-versaflex-pkg-thermoplastic-elastomers-polyone
This choice was based on the material’s chemical compatibility with the makeup formulation along with its REACH SVHC compliance, sealing properties, and superior overmolding adhesion to polypropylene.
https://www.avient.com/news/polyone-sustainability-portfolio-europe-expanded-support-circular-economy
Consisting of four overmolding grades compatible with rigid polypropylene and one suited to ABS, all grades are formulated for durability, property retention, and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs.
