Also, our CESA™ Additive Masterbatches are utilized
for solar back sheets to enhance the halogen-free
mono material structure and protect against voltage
breakdowns.
These injection
moldable TPEs can be overmolded to polypropylene (PP) and come in a natural grade that
can be easily colored.
Through this data, we create safety data sheet sand customer certification
statements for intended use and product safety improvements.

The technology is highly suitable
for printable sheet, where smooth surface finish and
low density is a requirement.
PRODUCTS APPLICATIONS DESCRIPTION/BENEFITS
EXCELITE PF-1
PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard;
profiles & decking
Fine cell structure able to target low density:
improves consistency and control over
foaming process

Finer cell structure than PF-1 promotes ultra
smooth surface finish; improves consistency
and control over foaming process
PF-1E & FA-54E
ADDITIVES
PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard;
profiles & decking
Enhanced run time formulation reduces
die lip build-up in PVC processes, leading
to longer production run times

density; achieves lower density without
sacrificing quality; self-nucleating and able
to increase extruder output rates up to 15%
FOAM ADDITIVE-85
Endothermic foam or
nucleating additive for olefin and
styrene polymers; plastic lumber,
sheet applications and
food packaging products
Can be used as a CFA or nucleating additive;
nucleating capabilities promote fine cell
structure and high cell density; achieves
greater density reductions with more
consistency and control
FOAM ADDITIVE-37 HDPE sheet & plastic lumber
Good cell structure and cell density
in HDPE lumber; greater consistency
and control over foaming process
EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY
• The process operator has full control of density
• Minimizes product rejection due to unnecessarily high/low density
• Production should consistently target the bottom of the density specification
• Enables control over the reintroduction of regrind or reprocessed materials as a feedstock
• Enables the consistent foaming of products using higher percentages of regrind
• Carrier selection can promote longer run times, enabling increased line productivity through
less plate-out or material build-up on die lips
EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE SURFACE FINISH
Excelite additives creates a fine, consistent cell structure within the extruded polymer, which determine
the surface roughness.

To solve this issue, the converter
required immediate action from the sheet producer.
The sheet producer began experimenting with material
changes in-house, but struggled to achieve consistency
of release.
THE IMPACT
While the OnCap Denesting additive solution was
developed initially to satisfy the needs of the converter,
it was so effective that the sheet producer has plans to
incorporate this technology into its entire portfolio of
packaging solutions.

GLS™ TPE
PACKAGING SOLUTIONS
CHEMICAL RESISTANT
SOLUTIONS FOR COSMETIC,
PERSONAL CARE AND
HOUSEHOLD PACKAGING
We’ve developed a line of chemical resistant thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) that do not discolor, etch, crack or
delaminate.
And, because TPEs can be overmolded, brand owners and packaging
manufacturers have new options for designing components that can be integrated directly into the package.
Our FDA and REACH compliant Versaflex™ PKG TPEs provide options for designing aesthetically pleasing
packaging components that withstand aggressive chemicals
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-07/Versaflex HC _ Versaflex HC BIO - BT Series Product Overview.pdf
Versaflex™ HC and Versaflex™ HC BIO
Thermoplastic Elastomers
TPEs for Biopharmaceutical Tubing (BT)
The Versaflex™ HC and Versaflex™ HC BIO BT series is
formulated specifically to handle the complexities
of biopharma tubing.
Delivering on critical
application demands, it provides weldability,
kink resistance, and tensile strength performance
comparable to leading medical tubing materials,
including silicone and TPE.
Offering reliable performance, optical clarity
and expanded design freedom, these medical-
grade TPEs may be customized to meet specific
regulatory demands or application needs.
