The
composite material is 25% the weight of comparable
steel structures, and also weighs significantly less than
concrete, making them easily deployable in the field.

WHY AVIENT?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2024-06/OnColor UL 94 Colorants Brochure.pdf
Compliance to IEC 60695 part 2-11 for the end product and parts 2-12 and 2-13 for materials is required in
Europe—and increasingly in other regions—for certain electrical and electronic applications.
In order to have a concentrate recognized by UL,
the following conditions must be met:
• the color concentrate producer must be
recognized by UL
• the polymer, generic or specific, must be
recognized as well
• the recognition of the material combination
(base resin + color concentrate) must be listed
in the QMSQ2 file of the concentrate producer
• the specification limits set in the QMQS2 file
must be respected if the UL 94 recognition is to
apply to the final plastic part
Avient has a wide range of color and cost options
available to provide maximum flexibility.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
