No matter how many times you expose TPEs to sufficient heat they will become soft and re-harden when cool. Check avient.com/tpeknowledgecenter to explore the possibilities. Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment.

In order to continuously track progress made toward achieving environmental, health and safety (EH&S) goals, Avient has implemented a reporting program which includes: Email Fraud Information Worldwide Locations

Bridging from the EverMinds™ platform, Borealis and Avient recently completed a joint application study investigating how to optimize color matching when using post-consumer recycled material (PCR) in rigid packaging applications. Those components include Borcycle M 100% recycled polypropylene (rPP) from Borealis in tandem with colorant formulations from Avient along with Avient’s PCR Color Prediction Service, which could digitally illustrate the colorant formulations that are possible. This collaborative study with Borealis is one way in which we can transfer our know-how to our value chain partners to help with closing the loop on plastics circularity.”
