• Needs a small diameter strength member with specific tensile and
geometric requirements that current product was not achieving
• Requires a solution that is also black and UV resistant, as existing
aramid yarns are not available in color (coating is not acceptable
for the application due to off-gassing complications)
• Withstands extreme, prolonged thermal cycling
• Acts as a critical component for safe re-entry into earth’s
atmosphere at the end of the satellite’s life cycle

It is designed for convertors
to add to preforms to allow for higher levels of
rPET, reducing risk from off-taste and improving
the sustainability of PET bottles.
It enables:
• Increased rPET content
• Reduced CO2 emissions
When added to PET preforms and bottles,
ColorMatrix AAzure helps to:
• Improve bottle quality
- Reduced preform acetaldehyde
by up to 80%
- Improved mechanical strength
- Lightweighting
• Improve processability
- Reduced bottle blowouts
- Reduced scrap
- Improved productivity
• Reduce energy consumption during
bottle blowing process
ColorMatrix AAzure has a slight blue tint, which is
useful for off-setting yellowing often associated
with the use of rPET, and has minimal impact on
final product color or aesthetics.
ColorMatrix AAzure can help to
reduce the risk of off-taste by reducing
preform AA levels by up to 80%.

Standing Up to the Elements
Off road vehicles should be made to take a beating.
No matter the elements or exposure, your vehicle
must be durable and look like new once the rider
has washed off the mud.
Accessories and Customization
Like most outdoor fans, off road enthusiasts put
their heart and soul into the sport.

The use of a shut-off nozzle or valve gating, as well
as the screw position control, is advantageous to
prevent premature foaming.
If a shut-off nozzle is
not available, it is helpful to keep the barrel/nozzle
pushed against the mold without retraction or
decompression during the dosing sequence between
the injections.
The foaming system typically
employs shut-off nozzles and/or valve gates to keep
pressure on the melt and keep the gas solubilized.

Let us walk you through:
Optimizing the LFT Molding Processes
• Ensuring proper drying and preparation of the
material (review of drying equipment)
• Processing guidance for the specific grade
(temperature and pressure suggestions)
• Primary process development (including runner
& gate geometry)
• Secondary operation process development
• Tooling debugging/optimization, especially if the
injection mold is new
Troubleshooting
• Failure analysis/issue resolution (including
pyrolysis/burn-off reviews to study internal fiber
structure and length)
• Process/mold support to perfect finished goods
• Equipment review
Training
• Polymers fundamentals training
• Design guidance for LFT
IN-HOUSE PROTOTYPING SUPPORT
Our 55,000 square foot Application Development
Center is most often leveraged for new program
prototyping and R&D trials.
Prototype Capabilities
• First articles
• Burn off (pyrolysis) studies to analyze fiber
retention and performance
• Customer trials to display new program tooling
• Agile formulation modification, if determined it’s
needed after first article runs
• Injection molding machines ranging
from 50–550 ton
Avient’s unique combination of materials, design
expertise, and technical services enables us to
conquer challenges and unlock the potential of
innovation in meaningful and dynamic ways for
customers around the world.
