They offer a more sustainable alternative to density
modified grades based on prime/virgin polymers.
These polymer formulations have been developed
to achieve equivalent performance to prime density
modified solutions with added sustainability
benefits.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

One
angle is to offer chemical foaming agents that
help reduce plastic material use.
These CFAs are
the result of Avient’s combined experiences in
the development of chemical foaming agents
for automotive plastic components and polymer
solutions for healthcare applications.
The products
help reduce material use by up to 20% depending
on part geometry and wall thickness.
