SHANGHAI, China – September 20, 2022 – Avient today announced the addition of new laser weldable polycarbonate (PC) grades to its Edgetek™ portfolio of specialty thermoplastics. The new formulations are intended for applications in small appliances, personal care products, consumer electronics, healthcare devices, and industrial electronics. In general, flame retardants and colorants often impede the energy needed to melt the polymer during joining, possibly reducing weld strength.

Our specialty polymers help produce or supply energy including fuel (oil/gas), electricity, and renewables. Our polymer solutions are formulated specifically for your applications.

Super Tough Nylon Formulations Added to Avient’s Recycled Content Portfolio   Nymax™ REC Recycled Nylon Formulations: two new super tough PA6 and PA66 grades added to Avient’s recycled content portfolio, each containing post-industrial recycled content, resulting in up to 81% lower cradle-to-gate product carbon footprint than traditional alternatives made without recycled content, and will be presented during Avient’s technical seminar at NPE, “Exploring Sustainable Alternatives to Traditional Polyamides,” by Jeremy Gray, Application Development and Technical Service Engineer, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient, on May 9 at 11 a.m. Lightweighting Applications: Exploring the potential of foaming techniques and polymer substitutions to reduce weight and enhance efficiency, thus replacing traditional metal components

All grades are formulated for durability, delivering property retention and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs. PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL), with 2018 revenues of $3.5 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions. The company adds value to global customers and improves sustainability through formulating materials, such as:

Avient product development efforts are focused on helping customers comply with the regulations in food contact applications,” said Matt Mitchell, director, global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. However, compliance does not depend solely on the right polymer formulation, but also on the design of the finished article. It is also formulated without bisphenol-A (BPA) or phthalates and is highly colorable to meet specific marketplace requirements.
