Since these layers are difficult to
separate, and the polymers are not compatible, their
properties can be negatively influenced during the
recycling phase.
It works by bringing
incompatible polymers – such as PP and PE –
together by forming them into a homogenous
polymer mixture that increases mechanical
properties based on polymer modification.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Designed for polyolefin recycling and to
enhance circularity
• Helps bring incompatible polymers together
by forming them into a homogenous polymer
mixture
• Improves the mechanical performance of mixed
PP/PE streams
• Increases impact strength by up to 50%
• Increases ductility by up to 100% for improved
performance
• Maintains mechanical strength properties close
to polymer starting point
• The end result is that the characteristics of rPP
remain with higher impact properties
• Good cost-performance ratio
• Can be combined with color into a single
masterbatch product for convenience
• Product guidance and technical assistance
is available from our experts
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
• Recycled polyolefins
• Packaging, consumer & others
• High-value polyolefin applications with recycled
material content
• Virgin polymers which will be recycled after the
use phase

When Avient proposed re-engineering the yoke with an
alternative composite material, Bettcher was receptive,
but needed evidence that a polymer solution would
retain the reliable performance its customers demanded.
The final solution was pre-colored to match the brand’s
existing color palette and eliminate the need for
secondary processing steps.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-08/gravi-tech-closures-case-study.pdf
In addition to cost savings, replacing metal would enable
the closure producer to provide its spirits customers with
customization in density and color, because Gravi-Tech
formulations are colorable, and can be tuned to replicate
up to 5 times the density of traditional polymers.

• Hardness range from 40–85 Shore A
• Protects critical electrical components from
EMI/RFI
• Reduces static build-up
• Simplifies manufacturing
• Overmolds directly onto polymer substrates
• Meets regulatory compliance requirements of
ATEX and ESD
• Food contact compliance grades are available
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
Electrical applications that require a flexible
material, and protection from EMI/RFI and static
build-up.
These include:
