The new container, to be made from an impact-modified polypropylene, needed good sidewall stiffness and excellent impact resistance. Teams from both companies worked closely to understand the specific property needs, and then searched for an impact modifier solution that the manufacturer could readily blend into polypropylene at the molding machine. They selected a TPE-based impact modifier that could be used at a loading level five percentage points below the current material while still meeting all of the performance requirements, including higher stiffness.

ColorMatrix™ Fiber Colorant Solutions combine colorants and specialized melt spinning equipment to provide an adaptive, innovative system for coloring polyester fiber. It also eliminates the need for water and wastewater treatment, up to 10 liters per kilogram of fiber, commonly required with aqueous dyeing processes.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Chain Extenders for Recycled PET Fibers In an effort to contribute to the circular economy, the use of recycled content in textile products is growing. The Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio includes chain extenders specially formulated to help recouple depolymerized polymer chains and support a more stable processing of recycled flakes into fibers. APPLICATIONS Avient’s chain extenders for fibers can be used to boost the processing of recycled polyester for a variety of textile products, including: • Clothing and sportswear • Bags and backpacks • Home textiles and upholstery • Automotive textiles and insulation/heat management systems • Carpets and rugs WORKING PRINCIPLE As opposed to standard chain extenders, which usually branch the PET molecules, Avient’s chain extenders for recycled PET fibers extend the molecules in a linear way, which is more adapted to the reprocessing into fibers.

End-use fabrics and textiles can then be tested using specific analytical tests to determine the presence of the taggant, thus confirming the origin of the fibers. In the case of recycled grades, fiber manufacturers can use the tracer concentrate pellets earlier in the production process by adding them to the recycled polymer content (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate bottle flakes or shredded nylon fishing nets) prior to being extruded into pellets. Dyneema®, the world's strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports
