Polymer vehicle interior delivers ‘wow’ factor, $500,000 in annual savings After a successful trial, the OEM was convinced it could shift from fabric to a polymer interior using the color and additive concentrates.  Increased efficiency: Because the polymer components were easier to manufacture, the OEM was able to reduce lead times for orders and the cost of carrying excess inventory.

Whether you are using color for functional or aesthetic purposes, careful consideration of each of the following points will prove valuable in your color selection and implementation: • Is your color formulation and polymer fully compatible and optimized for your production process? To ensure you have a formulation that will perform to its maximum effect, your liquid colorant should: • maintain consistent particulate dispersion and remain fully stable during storage, dispensing and processing • be engineered to be fully compatible with your particular polymer and production process set-up • be fully supported with dispensing equipment and expert technical services INTELLIGENT FORMULATION In addition, advances in liquid carrier vehicle systems mean that today liquid colorants can be highly engineered to ensure compatibility with an increasing range of polymer types. Avient delivers globally consistent formulations to its customers around the world.

CUSTOM FORMULATIONS Our experts work with customers to select custom polymer solutions that fulfill specific technical and regulatory requirements, and sustainability targets. Custom formulations are provided as ready-to-use products that do not require further dilution into the polymer. Examples of custom formulations that help achieve a more sustainable product profile are a nucleating agent combined with color in a ready-to-use formulation or a desired color offered in a bio-polymer based ready-to-use product.
