You can be confident that, in formulating and manufacturing our materials, we use sustainable practices to provide longterm product viability and sound environmental stewardship.

We’ve worked with numerous customers who have grappled with these same questions, applying our dedicated design and color resources together with our materials and formulation expertise, to balance user experience with competitive differentiation and the practical concerns of manufacturing.

Originally developed for protection from mortar fire, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite panels offer ballistic resistance at less than 25 percent of the weight of a comparable steel panel. Avient’s reinforced composite technologies use carbon, glass and aramid fibers with custom formulated thermoset or thermoplastic resins in continuous forming processes

Design engineers know that when high strength-to-weight ratio is required, fiber reinforced polymer FRP) composites are the material of choice. But choosing which composite material out of the spectrum of reinforcement and matrix combinations—from short to long to continuous fibers, and thermoset to thermoplastic resin formulations—is not so simple.

Harmonized product formulations available from all three Centers of Competence. We are proud to develop material formulations that can help customers more easily comply with local regulatory requirements.

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.

Formulated for addition to virgin PET and recycled PET (rPET), heat-stable ColorMatrix Optica blue toners work to correct and reduce the yellowing or color variation that typically occurs during the recycling process. ColorMatrix Optica blue toners are formulated for injection molding and extrusion processes, and are commercially available in major global markets.

CLEVELAND – May 5, 2021 – Avient today announced the launch of ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ 4020R, a non-nylon-containing oxygen scavenger additive specifically formulated to enable the use of up to 100 percent recycled PET (rPET) content. ColorMatrix Amosorb 4020R has been formulated to address this performance issue, and is the latest in a portfolio of solutions Avient has developed to enable high-quality recycled packaging.

In Europe, new patent-pending grades are formulated using recovered materials such as recycled polypropylene, recycled oil, and recycled glass filler. The PIR grades are formulated with 20 to 60 percent recycled content and the PCR grades contain 9 to 39 percent recycled food packaging.
