KEY REQUIREMENTS
WHY AVIENT?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-11/Cesa Fiber Additives Hydrophobic for PP Nonwovens Product Bulletin.pdf
Nonwoven fabrics used in surgery
are often required to be water-repellent to act
as a barrier and avoid contamination, while
hydrophobicity for nonwovens used in filtration
helps increase the service life of filters.

COLORANT OPTIONS
Avoid limiting yourself to either
solid or liquid forms, and focus
on the requirements of the end
application instead
• Widen your materials and
applications possibilities
• Achieve the desired
effect for each part
• Optimize productivity
and system costs by
matching the right colorant
type to the project
ADDING SPECIAL EFFECTS
Further differentiate and add value to your products
• Examples include: metallic, pearlescent, chrome look,
edge glow, sparkle/glitter, neon/fluorescent look,
woodgrain/stone/camouflage
SELECTING + SIZING
COLORANT EQUIPMENT
Both liquid and solid
colorants can be used in
the same production facility
• Use the right colorant
to significantly impact
production and offer
improvements in terms
of efficiency and quality

MINIMIZING SINKS
The easiest way to avoid sinks is by minimizing
thick regions in the part.
One thing to avoid in adding draft
are large variations in wall thickness.
Gates should be in areas that
will avoid “picture-framing” or areas that could
cause gas traps.

Resistant security
The unique composite matrix of the panels allows
for retention of the projectile to avoid potentially
hazardous ricochet.
When constructing walls, rest the initial course
of panels firmly on the floor to avoid any
unsupported panel weight on the wall framing.

When melt processing fluoropolymers, accelerated thermal decomposition should be avoided by having accurate temperature control, and in some cases, using corrosion-resistant materials for processing equipment3.
