The coloration and processing of recycled polymers can be challenging due to the quality difference between batches of recycled materials and the potential loss of mechanical stability. The additives help stabilize the polymer and reduce the creation of new gels and black spots. • Cesa™ Unify™ A4R Polyolefin Compatibilizer helps bring incompatible polymers like PP and PE together by forming them into a homogenous polymer mixture which increases the mechanical properties of the recycled polymer. • Cesa™ impact modifier for polystyrene improves the impact strength of recycled polystyrene (rPS) with limited impact on the Young’s modulus. This can help to develop recycling- friendly polymer solutions to increase the recyclability of plastic products.

Formulations typically feature a combination of exothermic and endothermic agents which, when under thermal decomposition, cause gas to evolve forming a cellular structure in the polymer matrix. PRODUCT BULLETIN EXCELITE - COMMON FORMULATIONS USAGE RATES Typically Excelite additives are dosed between 0.2% and 1.2% depending on the polymer, application and the density requirement. This enables a more continuous distribution of the foaming additive into the polymer matrix, improving uniformity of cell structure and reproducibility of density.

Since these layers are difficult to separate, and the polymers are not compatible, their properties can be negatively influenced during the recycling phase. It works by bringing incompatible polymers – such as PP and PE – together by forming them into a homogenous polymer mixture that increases mechanical properties based on polymer modification. The technology also helps maintain stiffness and mechanical strength close to that of the polymer’s starting point, thereby improving impact strength and ductility.

Since polymers interact differently with laser energy, making them more or less suitable for laser welding, special polymer solutions can be used to enhance a polymer’s ability to interact with the laser energy and achieve a good weld. Avient uses a “systems approach” to develop the laser welding solution most adapted to your project, taking into consideration the following aspects: • Transmitting and absorbing parts • Polymer type and grade • Dispersion of the additive in the final part • Sufficient and consistent loading of the additive • Part design: attention to flow separation at the welding interface • Color and opacitiy • Quality control – e.g. establish suitable control parameters (UV Visible Spectra) • Laser wavelength and processing parameter Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives formulated for laser welding are designed for use in healthcare applications. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Manufactured at four ISO 13485 certified sites, providing global consistency and increased security of supply • Documented change control beyond CAS number, reducing risk of change • Available as additive concentrates, ready-to-use additive formulations or ready-to-use additive/ colorant formulations for different polymers REGULATORY SUPPORT • Raw materials tested to: - ISO 10993-1 and USP biological evaluation - European Pharmacopeia 3.1.3/3.1.5 (polyolefin) - USP (polyethylene) - ICH Q3D elemental impurities • Registered Drug Master File (Type III) and/or Device Master File • Food contact established with FDA/EU* APPLICATION BULLETIN * FDA/EU compliance information available upon request; exceptions may occur Healthcare use limitations apply—see below.
