Color & Additive
Formulations for
Biodegradable Resins
& Blends
Using a selected list of pigments and additives,
Avient color experts know how to enhance
biodegradable starch blends or PLA without
affecting degradability of the resins.
Starch blend
resins often vary from white to brown and this
can influence the final color rendering in the
application.
You have the responsibility to conduct full-scale end-product performance testing
to determine suitability in your application, and you assume all risk and liability arising from your use of the information and/or use or handling of any product.
