Traditional vulcanized rubber products require application of adhesives to bond to the closure, and this adhesive bond has a greater potential for failure than the chemical bond formed between a TPE and  polymer substrate. The adhesive is also an additional component of the container system that must be evaluated for compatibility before use.

Extensive compatibility testing confirmed that the new grades would bond chemically with the engineering thermoplastic rigid substrate required in the device.

Universally compatible and easily combined with ColorMatrix color formulations. UNIVERSALLY COMPATIBLE As Triple A is universally compatible across a wide range of resins, it can also reduce handling complexity which can be a problem with alternative technologies.

Cesa Scratch & Mar Resistance Additives are proven compatible across a wide range of polymers, and can be used in a variety of processes, including extrusion, injection molding, blow molding or thermoforming. PRODUCT BULLETIN KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Enhances resistance to scratching, abrasion, and surface blemishes • Keeps products looking newer, longer • Improves perceived quality • Provides a reduction in surface friction and in sticking between parts • Tested and proven compatible across a wide range of polymers and processes—especially successful with polyolefins MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Cesa Scratch & Mar Resistance Additives give the extra protection needed for many applications, including those that experience daily surface abrasion.

Since these layers are difficult to separate, and the polymers are not compatible, their properties can be negatively influenced during the recycling phase. DESIGNED FOR COMPATIBILITY Cesa™ Unify™ A4R is part of the Additives for Recycling portfolio of solutions that helps improve the recycling of polyolefins.

The MEVOPUR™ LQ advanced range of liquid color & additive concentrates utilize the specific liquid carrier system designed for high compatibility with silicone elastomers. The color-stable, highly compatible ingredients including pigment, carrier and additives used in these concentrates are evaluated to industry standards and help reduce the risk of interaction with the body or the drug.

OnColor Edgeglo colorants are supplied as a pelletized concentrate and formulated with a carrier that is compatible with the letdown resin.

Compatible with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, supporting environmental goals and reducing waste

Compatible with extrusion and injection molding processes for both EBM and ISBM

Avient collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic-resistant panels that were not only compatible with the required hardware but also met color requirements for better visual cover once deployed.
