One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers. Companies wishing to switch from bath-dyeing to spin-dyeing can rely on this expertise and our global footprint to make the switch as easy and efficient as possible. 

Engineered polymers can be designed with specific thermal properties, possessing either excellent thermal conductivity or enabling efficient heat dissipation from the battery cells. Thermally conductive formulations can also be electrically isolative or conductive, combining thermal performance with protection from electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic interference, depending on the needs of the specific component.

With the support of the Sustainable Development Office of French Ministry of Interior (Mission Development Durable), more than 250 soft armor vests from the French Police and Gendarmerie Nationale containing Dyneema® ballistic material were taken from the field and tested on a pilot scale – successfully eliminating more than 400 kg of waste to reinstate Dyneema® back into the circular economy.  

OnColor Brilliant Metallic Colorants will be showcased at the PolyOne stand (Hall 8.2, Stand E37) at CHINAPLAS 2018 from April 24-27. Photo Caption: Game changing OnColor™ Brilliant concentrates from PolyOne create a metallic surface finish that truly mimics paint for plastic parts.

The Functional Fabric Fair is an exclusive sourcing destination tailored to those at the forefront of the outdoor, lifestyle, and activewear industry for textiles, footwear, and accessories, and will take place in Portland, Oregon, from April 15-16, 2025. Visitors can find the Dyneema® exhibit at stand #1524, where the team is now booking appointments for brands and media from April 15-16. 

These can be used across a broad range of industries and applications, from protective clothing and workwear to synthetic ropes to wires and cables, helping reduce weight and material consumption while enhancing performance.   Avient is exhibiting in hall 9.1, booth A60, at Techtextil in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, from April 23 – 26, 2024.

Southern States saw an opportunity to provide a unique solution to its utility customers, who were under pressure to comply with new physical security mandates from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)1. We are proud to work with them to help protect our nation’s infrastructure from physical threats.”  Southern States ballistic-resistant solutions incorporate three layers of GlasArmor panels to achieve Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Level 8 protection.

Total polymer solutions range from flame retardant, non-halogenated, low smoke polymers and lightweight foam to cross-linkable polyethylene and high-temperature materials. Visitors can also learn more about the latest industry and technology insights from PolyOne experts in booth A21 at Wire Southeast Asia 2017.
