Avient Design for Circularity
This is where Avient’s sustainable material science solutions come into the picture.
For example, part of the ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ range, Amosorb 4020R is an oxygen scavenger technology that helps maintain full oxygen scavenging functionality, even in bottles containing up to 100% recycled content.

PRODUCT BULLETIN
GEL MIGRATION PERFORMANCE
ECCOH LSFOH 6153/6154 UV grades offer greater gel migration performance compared to alternative
ECCOH grades.
Gel migration is measured using a quantitative internal method
* 6151 can be supplied with UV protection
* Values concluded from the simulation of materials rheological data and modelling standard extrusion tooling
Pressure: can affect extruder performance, higher pressure gives a lower output at the same rpm
Shear rate: has a relation with self-cleaning of the walls and mixing conditions
Stress: can affect the surface of the product, less stress gives a better surface aspect
