The plant, which is already fully operational, becomes the fourth global source for MEVOPUR™ polymer solutions, which are produced under carefully controlled conditions to support more reliable compliance with regulations governing medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging.

About PolyOne PolyOne Corporation, with 2016 revenues of $3.3 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

The colorants, provided as concentrate pellets, are added to virgin or recycled polymers during yarn manufacturing as a one-in-one manufacturing/dyeing process.

The result is a set of twenty color aesthetics that aim to guide and inspire designers and marketers in their color selections for new polymer applications.

The growing adoption of plastics with PCR content by Asian automakers in the past decade, especially for interiors, has also created a significant rise in demand for PCR-based TPE solutions capable of delivering excellent overmolding results on higher-performing polymers, such as PP,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing of Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

It’s exciting to continue to innovate and push the envelope with this high-performance polymer bringing more advanced LFT solutions to market,” said Matt Mitchell, Global Marketing Director, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Several trends are pushing the wine industry to find alternatives to natural cork,” explains Daniele Conti, Polymer Scientist on the ColorWorks team.

Since color or performance is embedded in the polymer, dents and scratches will not strip them away as they would for painted and coated parts. These include high-temperature, engineering and recycled polymers. We offer a wide range of color concentrates for different polymer grades, from standard to engineering polymers, that fulfill the vertical burning (V-0; V-1; V-2) and horizontal burning (HB) tests.

Compounded antistatic polymers produce parts that repel dust and uphold a vehicle’s interior clean look, and they provide an alternative to laborious cleaning.

Pultruded composites are a type of high-performance, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite material that are manufactured using a continuous process called pultrusion.
