However, Avient has overcome this challenge and achieved vibrant colors like any other resin. When coloring at the press, the carrier is critical for compatibility to mitigate issues with property retention, gloss, and surface issues like streaking.  As mentioned earlier, polyketone is relatively new and not yet as common as traditional engineered resins like nylons or acetal.

I feel I should report it but I am nervous about how my manager will respond if I do so—she might make my job more difficult for me. Q & A Q: Someone just asked me to hold the door open for them to help them enter one of our buildings. Q & A Q: My supervisor asked me to follow a new waste disposal procedure, but I am not sure it is safe or even legal.

Cesa™ Nox A4R is a specialized antioxidant additive that stabilizes polyolefins during processing, preventing the typical defects like discoloration, gels, and black spots—during initial, and future conversion steps and recycling loops.  Cesa™ Nox A4R is a specialized antioxidant additive that stabilizes polyolefins during processing, preventing the typical defects like discoloration, gels, and black spots—during initial, and future conversion steps and recycling loops (Chinese language version) Find out how our specialized antioxidant additive stabilizes polyolefins during processing, preventing typical defects like discoloration, gels, and black spots through multiple recycling loops.

The reinforced grades are targeted at applications in the industrial, electronics and transportation markets like pipes and tubing, electrical battery components, and under-the-hood fuel or chemical contact components.  The added lubricity helps to meet the low friction needs of applications in industrial, electronics and appliance markets like conveyor belts, gears, switches, pumps, and spigots.     Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

Perfect for Food & Beverage PET and rPET are non-toxic, do not react with foods, and provide thermal insulation. Energy Efficient PET takes less energy to manufacture than alternative materials like glass. Making the Most of rPET With demand rising and a limited supply, how do we make the most of rPET that does get recycled?

At this concentration, the product is quite stable over time and is paste-like in appearance. The paste will not disperse easily and is likely to sink rapidly to the bottom of even well stirred vessels. Values reported as “typical” or stated without a range do not state minimum or maximum properties; consult your sales representative for property ranges and min/max specifications.

Generally, it will be more challenging to use environmentally conscious TPEs in products with stringent regulatory requirements, like infant care (i.e., pacifiers, baby bottle nipples, etc.) and medical applications (i.e., catheters, syringe seals, respiratory masks, etc.). For general uses such as packaging or recreational products like dive masks and shoe inserts, LSR, prime TPEs, and sustainable content TPEs can be good options. Contact our team of experts if you’d like assistance evaluating the pros and cons of sustainable or conventional options.

Both options give brands and OEMs a pathway to more sustainable plastic products that are greener and perform like their petroleum-based counterparts. Bio-based raw material comes from renewable sources like corn, sugarcane, soy, wood, etc. If you’d like assistance evaluating the pros and cons of using sustainable TPEs in your applications, contact us.
