Cesa™ WithStand™ Antimicrobial Additives Cesa™ WithStand SX Low Haze Antimicrobial Additives Cesa™ WithStand™ Antimicrobial Solutions

This enhancement makes Cesa Raise an excellent solution for a wide range of applications in the food industry, including hot steam sterilization, hot-fill, and microwave use, as it is created for containers that need to withstand higher temperatures. Cesa™ Raise enhances the heat resistance of APET thermoformed packaging, allowing it to withstand temperatures up to 100°C.

Transcend™ Premier Healthcare Colorants are based in polysulfone resins, allowing the material to withstand up to 1,000 autoclave cycles as well as high heat sterilization to 150℃. Cesa™ WithStand™ Antimicrobial Additives

Cesa™ Withstand™ Antimicrobial Additives Cesa™ WithStand™ Antimicrobial Additives give your plastic products an added layer of defense against microorganisms such as bacteria, mold, and fungi.

Corrosion resistance that withstands oxidization for long-term use and benefit Chemical resistance that withstands fuels, oils and other harsh chemicals

These blends create parts that can withstand higher temperatures than standard PEEK, with better post-processing shrinkage control and improved colorability.     This higher Tg frees manufacturers to design parts that can withstand greater operating temperatures and high-temperature sterilization without warping.

After developing a deep understanding of the customer’s needs, Avient’s team quickly went to work to formulate a custom OnColor™ color and then added Cesa™ WithStand™ antimicrobial technology to make a single Smartbatch™ masterbatch that passed all of the product’s challenging requirements. This combined additive and color technology not only solved the color harmony challenge across all polymers used in the various components of the personal care device, but also accelerated testing because the Cesa WithStand antimicrobial material used had been pre-tested for polymeric integrity.

Blow molded bottles shipped in rigorous transit environments and used in everyday life by consumers must withstand drops and impact.
