Liking what they heard, the engineers decided to team up with Avient specialists in polymer distribution, colorants and additives to tackle the issue.
The immediate result of the new ABS material was elimination of the automaker’s color consistency issues.
Reduced material costs for the affected parts by 16 percent

Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
Certain polymers under certain mold conditions can
stick to the mold, leading to broken or deformed
parts.

Wood grain effect
• Granite effect
• Fabric effect
• Muted pastels
• Vibration damping
PETS FOR THE PLANET
• Super concentrates to color PCR
• Foaming agents to reduce material and weight
• Bio-derived polymers
• Natural scents
As pet people look for ways to reduce their
‘pawprint’ on the planet, they are making
eco-conscious decisions about the products
they buy for their pets.
Explore the use of
sustainable materials, such as coconut
fibers or recycled plastics, to reduce your
brand’s environmental footprint.
Think about
choosing materials that are either bio-derived
or recyclable, or incorporate post-consumer
recycled (PCR) materials.

Multiple
components, each made from different materials,
did not appear to be the same color.
As a result, the
design team at the OEM struggled to find a supplier who
could achieve tight color matching tolerances across
diverse polymeric materials.
This combined
additive and color technology not only solved the color
harmony challenge across all polymers used in the
various components of the personal care device, but
also accelerated testing because the Cesa WithStand
antimicrobial material used had been pre-tested for
polymeric integrity.
