• Continuous filament, including fine deniers
(POY, FDY, HOY)
• Spunbond
SINGLE PIGMENT DISPERSIONS (SPDS)
We have extensive experience in using advanced
technologies and special raw materials, which make
these products suitable for sensitive applications.
TECHNICAL ANALYSES
• DSC: Thermal analyses to characterize polymers, additives
and colorants
• TGA: Thermogravimetric analysis to evaluate thermal stability,
plus inorganic pigment, and carbon black content in the
Masterbatch
• FT-IR: Infrared spectroscopy for the analysis of raw materials
• Incineration oven to determine inorganic content
• Melt Flow Tester to measure the Melt Flow Rate of MBs
and Polymers
• Filter test to measure the dispersion quality and aggregate
content of materials contained in the polymer matrix
• Intrinsic/Relative Viscosity of Masterbatches and polymers
• Moisture content in the liquid colorants, MBs and polymers
• UV-Visible spectrometry: instrumental evaluation of the color
on yarn to perform quality control, color matchings and recipes
adjustments
• Yarn testing to evaluate mechanical properties, abrasion,
dry heat, rubbing and other characteristics
• Our pilot spinning lines have state-of-the-art take-up winders
that spin up to 4,500 meters/minute.

FOR PADDLESPORTS
Paddlesports enthusiasts take many forms:
adrenaline junkies who crave the exhilaration of
kayaking Class 5 rapids; anglers canoeing down a
glassy river at dawn’s first light; groms charging into
the salty surf on their SUPs.

Protecting Polymers from Microbe Growth
As such, there’s a trend to reduce microbial populations on high-touch surfaces via the use of antimicrobials to protect material aesthetics and durability or to prevent the spread of pathogenic microorganisms.
To better evaluate how to protect plastic parts from microbial attack, Avient conducted a study to screen a variety of plastic substrates for susceptibility using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) G21 (fungi susceptibility), Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z2801, and modified ASTM E1428-15a (bacterial susceptibility) test standards.
