So when a particular customer came to Avient wanting to displace non-recyclable dairy packaging, we accepted the challenge. ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additives for PET provided high-performance light blocking technology and enabled a recyclable alternative to long-life dairy packaging. This additive is particularly suitable in packaging for ultra-high temperature (UHT) liquid dairy products, as these types of products have a longer shelf life, making them more susceptible to light-induced oxidation due to ambient storage conditions.

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.  Further savings came from improved operational efficiency, based on the high consistency and stability offered by the new color and additive concentrate.

Here are a few points to consider when designing part molds for styrene-ethylene/butylenestyrene polymer based TPEs (SEBS TPEs), or styrene-butadiene-styrene polymer based TPEs (SBS TPEs): The gates on these types of molds should have as short a land length as possible to create high stress concentrations. SBS TPEs that are held at high temperature for long times are capable of crosslinking.
