Specialty Plastisols and Powder Coatings Whether you are looking for plastisol for healthcare applications or vinyl powder formulations to meet automotive OEM requirements, our specialty vinyl solutions can help you expand your horizons. Liquid at room temperature, these customized resins can also be toll blended for any application

These performance characteristics make them useful in products that require flammability performance, durability, strength, and dimensional stability, such as battery housings for power tools and industrial applications.   Secondly, the use of the polyketone base resin offers a reduced product carbon footprint (PCF) compared to competitive nylon (PA) base resins (PA), helping to improve sustainability throughout the product life cycle. It’s exciting to continue to innovate and push the envelope with this high-performance polymer bringing more advanced LFT solutions to market,” said Matt Mitchell, Global Marketing Director, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Molybdenum disulfide is typically formulated with nylon resins to reduce wear rates. Lower power requirements & low maintenance Specialty Furniture Fitting

Avient developed a technology suite that uses specialty engineered polyketone (PK) thermoplastics and helps our customers meet their goals to lower the carbon footprint of their products versus traditional materials, like PA66 and PA6. The new materials also offer sustainability benefits over the product lifecycle through carbon footprint reductions compared to competitive materials—PK base resin production emits up to 61 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) than nylon and POM.
