Developed in response to customer inquiries and application requirements in growing industrial and consumer markets, the new formulations satisfy high-temperature / low compression set performance needs at this broader durometer spectrum.  Market and application demands are ever changing, and it’s our responsiveness and deep formulation expertise that help customers meet those challenges head on,” said Matt Mitchell, director, global marketing at Avient.

Complēt™ R nylon 6 long fiber composites provide stiffness, strength, and toughness performance on par with standard nylon 6 long fiber formulations using virgin resin, giving these materials the structural capability necessary to be used as an alternative to metals. Formulations are available globally in a standard black color at typical weight percentages of long glass fiber, long carbon fiber, or hybrid combinations.

The composite material used to make this part includes a custom-formulated thermoset epoxy resin, which also has good corrosion and chemical resistance. Learn more about custom material formulations by contacting an expert at Avient today

Additionally, supply chain issues around pigments, stabilizers and additives that are taken out of production may leave you scrambling for formulation alternatives. Quality control: When you produce plastisol, you also assume the challenges associated with producing in-spec formulations for your end products to ensure consistent quality, each and every time.

Adding a concentrate (masterbatch) to the natural resin during processing Pre-colored resins are formulated to an exact target shade, making it possible to create customized colors. For amorphous polymers like PSU, the cooling rate in FFF is critical. https://www.solvay.com/sites/g/files/srpend221/files/2018-11/Additive-Manufacturing-Filaments-Processing-Guide_EN-v1.1_0.pdf High-temperature polymer formulations provide robust material performance at elevated temperatures, even those in excess of 300°F (150°C).

During processing, polymers often degrade due to oxygen and heat exposure which causes such things as discoloration, gels, and black spots. Cesa Nox A4R is formulated to help: • Brand owners who need to maximize their PCR usage up to 100% to achieve sustainability and recyclability targets • Recyclers involved with flake or pellets dealing with multiple processing defects • Convertors of bottles, film, and sheet who need to maintain high-quality levels of PCR Performance enhancement antioxidants such as Cesa Nox A4R are valuable for many stakeholders within the circular economy, and indeed anyone seeking to achieve high-quality levels in their recyclate while operating with ever-increasing quantities of PCR.

Swellcoat™ Water Blocking & Absorbing Yarns PRODUCT BULLETIN Swellcoat™ impregnated fibers introduce Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) into fiber optic cable binders, fillers, and buffer threads to create a stable gel that can absorb up to 100x its weight. Formulated to install cleanly and efficiently, they eliminate the need to deal with messy gels. Five of Avient’s nearly 50 U.S. facilities currently provide fiber optic cable plastics, polymers, and components which are ultimately used to enable the expansion of broadband internet access.

CycleWorks can develop recycling-friendly product solutions to increase the recyclability of plastic products and, by understanding the chemistry of polymers in the mechanical recycling process, can provide data to help develop new and unique polymer formulations. A dedicated team is able to scientifically investigate details of the recycling process, understand the degradation and behavior of polymers, and develop the right additive and color masterbatches to increase the performance of PCRs and guarantee high recyclability of the final article.
