The white ABS
plastic samples, produced with and without Cesa
Light Additives, were exposed to simulated sunlight
conditions using the weathering test ISO 4892-
2:2013.
Samples containing Cesa Light Additives
(CC01, CC02, CC03) showed limited Delta b (Db)
variations, while the non-UV stabilized sample
showed a high Db variation and visual yellowing.

although at a slightly lesser rate compared
to the prior quarter
o For Q2 2022, the average cost of key
hydrocarbon based materials was up 15%,
roughly the same as the average cost of non-

Reduce cycle times, reduce scrap rates and improve part aesthetics with Cesa™ PlastOne™
https://www.avient.com/products/polymer-additives/processing-enhancement-additives/colormatrix-eze-slip-agent-pet
This slip agent advances mold release resulting in reduced thread pulls and less blow line jams, enabling faster cycle times, improved production rates, and reduced waste.

Where UV barrier addition rates are low, they can also offer cost and process efficiencies over opaque coloration or sleeve shrink wrapping.

Where clarity is critical, remember to specify high-performance additives that can be introduced at low addition rates and do not discolour the polymer or cause haze.

Improved part quality: The addition of OnCap CTR kept critical dimensions of the parts within tolerance and improved rejection rates.
