They offer excellent scratch resistance, adhesion, and chemical resistance. Available globally, the metallization-compatible grades are customizable to meet the desired weight, finish, and performance requirements across a diverse range of weighted packaging applications.

Our contribution is working with resin producers and our in-house material experts to provide more sustainable and bio-compatible color and additive polymer solutions.” The ISCC PLUS certification is a voluntary system applicable to the bioeconomy and circular economy for food, feed, chemicals, plastics, packaging, textiles, and renewable feedstock derived from a process using renewable energy sources.

They also feature excellent bonding to plastics with improved chemical resistance, such as rigid PVC, co-polyesters, PC/polyethylene terephthalate, rigid thermoplastic urethanes and polyetherimide, many of which are now replacing traditional substrate materials. Further, these grades are compatible with PolyOne’s OnColor™ HC Plus USP Class VI-compliant colorants, which resist fading from repeated antiseptic use. 

Carefully selected regulatory compliant raw materials and chemicals Formulated compatibility to individual fiber substrates or processing conditions

Avient collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic- resistant panels that were not only compatible with the required hardware but also met color requirements for better visual cover once deployed.

They are compatible with most common additives, including UV stabilizers, antistats and slip agents. Omnicolor colorants are based on a multipurpose compatible carrier system. PROCESS COMPATIBILITY Omnicolor colorants can be used for injection molding, blow molding, and profile and sheet extrusion.
