Vibration in top load washing machines can cause the units to ‘walk,’ which prompts a large volume of costly service calls to the manufacturer.
When using Versaflex VDT, kinetic energy generated by the washing machine movement activates molecules in the material, which then converts the kinetic energy into heat energy, reducing vibration and ‘walking.’

Advancement in color-separation technology has helped us tremendously in the past 10 years, but this technology is only effective if the printer uses a predictable and balanced ink set, to which the separations may be calibrated.
Opaque inks when used on dark garments may give you the color “pop” for which you are looking, but may overtake an underlay along with any other previously printed colors.
This, however, also lowers the pigment load which, in turn, will weaken the color.

FireCon™ chlorinated polyethylene formulations are flame-retardant jacketing materials designed for use in low-voltage power-and-control cables which are routinely exposed to harsh chemicals and low temperatures.
These filled, flexible thermoplastic blends are a robust cable jacketing solution for applications in which ignition and flame resistance are crucial, such as industrial, building and construction, and nuclear markets.

CLEVELAND – July 8, 2019 – PolyOne today launched a new portfolio of infrared- detectable black colorants for plastic packaging, which will allow formerly unrecyclable black waste plastic to be properly sorted at recycling facilities.
Carbon black makes it impossible for the equipment to identify the waste, which must then be sent to landfill or incineration.

Avient accepted the challenge, offering its Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Color Prediction Service that was able to help L’Oréal achieve global color consistency and speed up launch time for its Redken line of hair care products, which can support those in the plastic packaging industry facing the same issue when using mechanical recycling resin grades.
L’Oréal required the same color packaging worldwide for product lines like Redken, which is important so that consumers can easily recognize their favorite products no matter where they buy them.
