Recycled PET often exhibits yellowing or color variations due to degradation during the recycling process. These additives are developed to withstand multiple recycling loops, helping the recycled material remain visually appealing even after several uses. These additives should not negatively impact the recyclability of PET and should help maintain the integrity of the recycled material.

Using bio-based and recycled materials in your finished products Recycled raw materials come in two forms: post-industrial recycled (PIR) and post-consumer recycled (PCR). These include bio-derived content, post-industrial recycled (PIR) content, and post-consumer recycled (PCR) content. 

Suitable to injection mold, or overmold onto PP and PE Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers: reSound™ REC Recycled content TPEs for enhanced sustainability

The foaming simulation is carried out under confidentiality and is currently available for components made from polypropylene (PP), talcum filled PP, and glass fiber filled PP, with a minimum part thickness of 2mm. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Provides a mold-filling study • Helps maximize part weight reduction • Predicts mechanical properties • Enables the calculation of necessary clamping force • Reduces physical trials • Optimizes tool design and production processes KEY APPLICATIONS • Components made from polypropylene (PP), talcum filled, and glass fiber filled PP with a minimum part thickness of 2mm • Automotive structural parts e.g., door panels, dashboard carriers • Consumer goods e.g., interior fridge parts, transport boxes and composters, vacuum cleaner base panels PRODUCT BULLETIN Sustainability Spotlight 1 Moldflow® is a registered trademark of Autodesk® * Avient Foaming Prediction Service will provide general information based on available inputs.

Avient’s Taoyuan production site in Taiwan recently achieved full compliance with the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) 4.0. The GRS-certified color and additive solutions contain a required percentage of pre-consumer or post-consumer recycled polyester primarily from recycled PET flakes. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

The antioxidant can be added to PCR content early in the recycling process or incorporated in virgin resin to protect against degradation in multiple recycling loops.   Sustainability experts from Avient will be on hand to help address recycling challenges in packaging, drawing on research conducted at Avient’s CycleWorks™ Innovation Center that focuses on mechanical recycling challenges and solutions.   Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

Reusability and Recyclability Keep in mind that whether you’re aiming at mechanical or chemical recycling, design for recyclability has its challenges. The use of multiple materials, color, and certain additives can add to the recycling complexity or limit recyclability.
