Avient will also showcase the following functional additives, colorants, TPEs, and support services to help address the needs and trends of an evolving healthcare landscape: High-Performance Polymer Solutions for In Vitro Diagnosis (IVD) and Labware Applications, including laser welding and laser marking, customized colorants and functional additives, low retention additives, nucleating/clarifying agents, conductive black formulations, engineered polymers, and thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs.)  Polymer Additives for Pharmaceuticals can maintain efficacy and prolong the shelf life of pharmaceuticals by helping manufacturers protect drugs or nutraceuticals against UV light, moisture, and oxygen that can cause degradation.

Avient’s portfolio of colorants and additives, thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), and specialty engineered polymers helps customers meet performance demands, comply with medical and pharmaceutical regulations, and accelerate speed to market. To support this, Avient’s medical-grade colorants and additives are manufactured at sites certified under GMP or ISO 13485-2016 standards. Recently Launched Colorant Chromatics™ Evoluscend™ Non-PFAS High-Temperature Mold Release Additive: a high-temperature polymer mold release additive made without intentionally added PFAS and developed to boost production efficiency and product quality for manufacturers.

Fortunately, there are several kinds of additives that don’t affect future recyclability of PET that can used during processing to correct for this yellowing. Similar to the ones that correct yellowing, there are special additives that “scavenge” or otherwise reduce the levels of acetaldehyde. In addition, chain extender additives can improve IV for better strength and performance.
