Sustainability Spotlight Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents Reflection electron microscopy (REM) view of foamed plastic Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents are supplied as concentrates CHEMICAL FOAMING AGENTS (CFAs) are chemical substances that react under the influence of heat to release gas into the plastic matrix during the manufacturing process of plastic parts. The portfolio includes non-hazardous endothermic substances that require minimum cooling of the plastic parts after manufacturing.

Avient is committed to replacing, reducing and refining the use of animal testing by applying the following practices: • Replace – Before any vertebrae testing, Avient will investigate the use of alternative methods and approaches, including use of data that is already publically available, computational toxicology models and read-across to available data for similar substances. • Reduce – Avient will only consider animal testing if it is a legal requirement, or to ensure the safety of our products, when no suitable alternatives are available.

The case study shows that by utilising the 3D suite simulation and comparing to real-world testing, Avient is equipped to more accurately interpret the data to help solve its customers’ toughest application challenges. © 2022 Hexagon AB and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates.

They can also improve the dosing accuracy of powder substances.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which is classed as a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS), is often used as an anti-drip agent.

REGULATORY SUPPORT Inks in the Aquarius™ portfolio have been formulated to meet stringent requirements of the Zodiac Aquarius™ Restricted Substance List.

In this regard “ubiquitous” means that this substance is omnipresent and its occurrence cannot be avoided by any technical, physical or chemical measure.
