Color and Additive Concentrates Colorant and additives overview and capabilities. Color and Additives Solutions Overview

Mevopur™ Healthcare Bio-based Polymer Solutions are color and performance-enhancing additive solutions specially formulated with bio-based polymers for healthcare applications. As concentrates, the color and additive polymer solutions are incorporated into the virgin polymer at a specific ratio (a.k.a. let-down ratio). As pre-colored formulations, they already contain the right amount of colorant and/or additive and can be used as such without dilution.

Additional iterations are in development for other high-performance resins, including polyethersulfone (PES) and polysulfone (PSU). This range of biocompatible and regulatory-compliant formulations answers a demand for cleaner, brighter colors in the healthcare space,” said Michael Garratt, president, Color, Additives & Inks, EMEA. They are tested to ISO 10993 standards, and can be customized with the addition of functional additives to enhance product performance.

SmartHeat RHC is an APR-accredited additive dispersion for rPET and PET preforms. Walter Ripple, vice president of sustainability at PolyOne, remarked “This additive changes the game for PET recycling and rPET use. PHOTO CAPTION: ColorMatrix™ Smartheat RHC additives help to improve sustainability and support the circular economy.

CLEVELAND – September 9, 2024 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable materials solutions and services, today announced the addition of MagnaPrint™ Hybrid Fusion Vibrant White to its MagnaColours™ portfolio of inks for the textile industry. MagnaPrint Hybrid Fusion Vibrant White is an exciting, PVC-free addition to the MagnaColours portfolio, offering a curing time that is half as long as the leading competitor’s water-based ink,” said Jake Ojeda, Global Marketing Director and Americas Sales Director, Color, Additives, and Inks at Avient.

Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Laser Welding Additives for Medical Devices Laser welding has become a technology of choice to join plastic parts of complex medical devices. Avient uses a “systems approach” to develop the laser welding solution most adapted to your project, taking into consideration the following aspects: • Transmitting and absorbing parts • Polymer type and grade • Dispersion of the additive in the final part • Sufficient and consistent loading of the additive • Part design: attention to flow separation at the welding interface • Color and opacitiy • Quality control – e.g. establish suitable control parameters (UV Visible Spectra) • Laser wavelength and processing parameter Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives formulated for laser welding are designed for use in healthcare applications. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Manufactured at four ISO 13485 certified sites, providing global consistency and increased security of supply • Documented change control beyond CAS number, reducing risk of change • Available as additive concentrates, ready-to-use additive formulations or ready-to-use additive/ colorant formulations for different polymers REGULATORY SUPPORT • Raw materials tested to: - ISO 10993-1 and USP biological evaluation - European Pharmacopeia 3.1.3/3.1.5 (polyolefin) - USP (polyethylene) - ICH Q3D elemental impurities • Registered Drug Master File (Type III) and/or Device Master File • Food contact established with FDA/EU* APPLICATION BULLETIN * FDA/EU compliance information available upon request; exceptions may occur Healthcare use limitations apply—see below.
