HANDLING AND USAGE RATES
Triple A is a dispersion which can be
supplied individually or in combination
with other ColorMatrix colorant and
additive technologies.
Universally compatible and
easily combined with ColorMatrix color
formulations.
The additive has no
impact on either color or clarity of
containers and is easily combined with
ColorMatrix color formulations.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-03/CycleWorks Solution Bulletin.pdf
It is widely used
to manufacture films, bags, trays, bottles, and
containers, and it has excellent overall properties
such as impact and tensile strength, clarity,
processability, colorability, and durability.
Some key issues with PCR include degraded
mechanical properties, inconsistent and gray
coloration, unpleasant odors, or missing food
contact approvals.
A dedicated team is able to scientifically investigate
details of the recycling process, understand the
degradation and behavior of polymers, and develop
the right additive and color masterbatches to
increase the performance of PCRs and guarantee
high recyclability of the final article.

THE IMPACT
By replacing traditional sealing materials with non-
halogenated OnFlex S HF TPE, Schneider-Electric NB
(Strömfors) was able to offer its customers several
significant benefits:
• For flexibility in processing, OnFlex S HF TPEs can be
supplied in either natural or pre-colored grades.
Natural
grades can be colored during processing with compatible
products from Avient’s OnColor™ color concentrate line
Additional advantages of these TPEs include:
• Highly flame retardant without the inclusion
of halogens
• Low temperature flexibility
• Excellent processability
• Good abrasion resistance
• Excellent colorability
• Operating temperatures from -50° C to +100° C
• All grades meet UL94-V0 at 1.5 mm
• All grades pass IEC 60695-2-12 Glow Wire Flammability
Index (GWFI) at 960°C

Our Cesa™ Laser
Marking Additives not only contain a laser marking
additive but also deliver a part’s color and can
include other additives such as those for scratch or
UV resistance.
The activation changes the
molecular structure of these
additives, causing a color change
that provides the vivid contrast
of laser marking.
The mark can be white
or dark in color.
