Three Automotive Parts Primed for Metal-to-Plastic Conversion However, long-fiber thermoplastic (LFT) technology addresses these concerns, bridging the gap between short-fiber reinforced formulations and over-engineered materials. Electrically conductive and static dissipative materials can provide the necessary protection without the weight and design constraints of traditional metal components.

The plastic packaging recycling target in Germany will rise to 63% from 2022 and the new law also introduces incentives for packaging producers to incorporate recyclability considerations into their packaging design, and to use recycled or renewable materials. This is where Avient’s sustainable material science solutions come into the picture. We are proud that our solutions are helping stakeholders across the plastics value chain, in Germany and globally on the journey towards a plastics circular economy.

Notably, Avient’s sustainable color concentrates can also support steps within the country to encourage plastic waste recycling and reuse. Avient also offers color concentrates for biodegradable plastics PLA, PHA, PHBV, PBS, PBAT and special blends of those materials, which do not compromise the organic recyclability of the resins they enhance. Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

Along with the tremendous benefits that plastics bring to society, there is also a responsibility to ensure plastic waste does not end up in the environment. Our technologies help to reduce material usage, improve container recyclability, and improve physical performance and reuse potential of recycled materials. Simplify the process to develop color in recycled resin for L’Oréal to achieve global color consistency, while working towards their 2030 objective to have 100% of the plastics used in its packaging be made from recycled or bio-based material.

Kaolin, or white clay, is an aluminum silicate used in materials such as ceramics, paint, rubbers and plastics. 1http://machinedesign.com/materials/mineral-fillers-improve-plastics Both materials also can be used to make plastics that are attracted to magnets.
