Reliable coloration to RAL 7011 and RAL 7035 colors was also required, something hard to provide when using post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, as performance can be more unstable than prime material. Utilizing the Social Plastic from Plastic Bank, two new Maxxam™ REC Recycled Polyolefin formulations were developed, one in each RAL color requested.

The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs.

In addition to cost savings, replacing metal would enable the closure producer to provide its spirits customers with customization in density and color, because Gravi-Tech formulations are colorable, and can be tuned to replicate up to 5 times the density of traditional polymers.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Light Stabilizers for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens Non UV-stabilized fibers exposed to sunlight can suffer color fading and molecular changes that degrade their chemical and mechanical properties, leading to fraying and breakages. KEY BENEFITS Avient’s UV stabilizers for fibers provide the following benefits: • High active ingredient loading options available • Little or no effect on processing speeds so plant productivity can be maintained at the highest levels • Resistance to interaction with fertilizers, pesticides and bleaching agents in the manufacturing and end-use environment • Can be combined with colors and with other additives (e.g., flame retardants) into a single combination concentrate for convenience • Product guidance and technical assistance from our experts PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.
