They offer a more sustainable alternative to density modified grades that are 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.

Starting with raw materials, we source the best polymers, additives, modifiers, fillers, reinforcers, colorants and pigments. Our materials science expertise supports material decisions, while our processing expertise guides customers to use the materials properly. now Silicor Materials Inc.)

Our ColorWorks team can establish master color standards against which new materials may be evaluated, and distribute these color references throughout your supply chain. Our experts can evaluate materials submitted by your vendors to confirm that they meet your specifications. Avient’s New Aesthetix initiative combines polymer science and unconventional ways to look at processing and formulation to deliver innovative aesthetic solutions to plastic materials.

SenseAction™ combines a dedicated raw material range with a safe production process.  The concept is based on three pillars: a dedicated raw material portfolio, an HACCP production site and a sensory test method. Masterbatch formulation based on dedicated raw material range
