Additionally, some countries have stringent local fire safety standards for arena and stadium seating, which call for plastics with improved flame retardancy properties, achieved with flame retardant additives. Our CESA™ additive solutions include UV stabilizers, UV stabilizer/color combination products, and UV stabilizer/flame retardant/color combination products when flame retardancy is needed. UV STABILIZER/COLOR COMBINATIONS • Combines color and UV stabilization for use in PP and PA • Ingredients screened with accelerated weather testing* • Excellent weather resistance properties (against chalking, embrittlement) • Long-term colorfastness and light stability UV STABILIZER/FLAME RETARDANT/ COLOR COMBINATIONS • Combines low halogen flame retardants, UV stabilizers and color for use in PP and PA • Ingredients screened with accelerated weather testing* • Excellent weather resistance properties (against chalking, embrittlement) • Compliant with local fire standards (e.g.: AFNOR M 2 in France, DIN 4102 B 2 – B 1 in Germany, UNI 8457 – 9174 C 1 in Italy, BKZ 5.2 in Switzerland, BS 5852.1990 CRIB 3-5 in UK)** • Standard portfolio available for PP injection molded applications APPLICATION BULLETIN * Laboratory weathering testing may not be determinative of all conditions of use; the end user must determine suitability of a product for its intended use ** Contact us for more information on regulatory compliance Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.

Avient Introduces durable orange nylon colorants for High Voltage Electrical Vehicle (EV) Connectors, combining high heat and long-term color stability against fading in glass-filled PA6 and PA66 systems without compromising flame retardancy or mechanical performance. Comparative testing between PA66-GF/FR without and with OnColor orange showed no impact on flame retardancy and limited adverse effects on essential mechanical characteristics, such as flexural and impact strength.   They meet a fast-growing demand in the EV market by combining excellent processability, high chromatic initial color, and little to no constraints on flame retardancy and electrical or mechanical properties.

Available in unfilled, impact-modified and flame-retardant grades, these formulations deliver comparable physical and mechanical performance to conventional PC blends. Improved Chemical Resistance $$$$ $$$ $$ $ FR PC/ABS FR PC/PET FR PC/PBT Edgetek™ CR

Meets strict flame-retardant compliance

Long glass fiber composites are safe to use in proximity with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan diagnostic equipment because of their non-magnetic and electrically insulative characteristics. Flame Retardant – Increase product safety by including flame retardants to provide halogen-free fire resistant/smoke density/smoke toxicity (FST) and UL94 compliance. 

Its portfolio of OnColor™ polymer colorants was developed to improve the heat and long-term color stability of cautionary orange polymers for high-voltage EV connectors, offering the following benefits: • Long-term fading resistance in thermal aging tests at up to 130°C for 1,000 hours, • No migration, excellent processing stability • Lower corrosion risk vs. typical comparable colorants • No impact on flame retardancy and limited adverse effects on essential mechanical characteristics, including flexural and impact strength Avient’s orange nylon colorants are available in several validated RAL, Pantone, and JPMA orange shades for compounding, injection molding, and extrusion.
