In order to ensure the middle layer in a face mask can effectively block up to 95% of airborne particles, the material requires the addition of a specific additive prior to the meltblown stage followed by a process known as electret charging.

THE SOLUTION When the cable manufacturer reached out to Avient for a solution, its polymer science experts teamed up with the manufacturer to review quality standards, manufacturing practices, and the cable performance its customers required.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Offers reheating property for synthetic fibers with specialty formulations • Provides a temperature increase of up to 12°C when exposed to a light source for 10 minutes • Good spinnability • Lower impact on the color APPLICATIONS Cesa Fiber Additives are intended for use in: • Clothing: hoodie, sweater, jacket, ski clothing, thermal underwear, etc. • Home textile: bedding, blankets, etc. • Technical fabrics for thermal insulation PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

Cesa Stat Antistatic Additives for automotive can support customers with electrostatic decay time testing according to Standard DIN EN 61340-2-1 to speed up the development.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Excellent lot-to-lot and within-lot consistency for high-quality homogeneous black shades • Easy processing and support of a long-lasting spin pack lifetime • Fastness properties and specification tolerances on par with high-end products on the market • Standard and bluish undertones available in high pigment loadings for an efficient and competitive coloration package • Can be combined with additives into a single combination concentrate for convenience • Compliance with global, regional, and local standards and regulations* RECOMMENDED USE • In most cases, the concentrate is added directly to the resin using gravimetric or volumetric dosing units; for some processes, the concentrate can be added via a side stream extruder (direct spinning) • The recommended dosages are from 3% for the typical automotive, technical, and carpet applications and up to 6% for apparel, footwear, and home textile yarns * Contact your local sales representative for more information on regulatory compliance PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.

Versaflex™ CE 3140 TPEs are specifically formulated to deliver superior permittivity and low loss performance up to millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies used for 5G.

Avient Design then upped Hoyt’s grip game twofold by adding its logo within the mold and enhancing the grip with a hand support ridge.

PROCESSING Regrind Can be used up to 20%, but material should be requalified or retested to ensure that the loss in mechanical properties is not significant enough to cause part or application failure.

Then, the composite laminate returns the stored energy, thus setting the runner up for an overall stride length increase and/or a faster running gait.

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.
