The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. The Avient team assessed the application’s technical and operational requirements, and recommended a GLS™ Versalloy™ alloy in 45 Shore A durometer, an FDA-compliant medical TPV grade designed for overmolding onto PP.

It meets FDA and ISO 109931 standards for sulfone products and can be effective across a range of high-temperature polymers, including PEEK, PPSU, PES, PSU, PEI, LCP, and PPS, with a maximum service temperature exceeding 150°C. Cesa™ Low Retention Additives for Healthcare: formulations that can repel water and other liquids that deliver the last drop out of a package or devices such as pipette tips to change surface retention performance and enable fast evacuation. Colorant Chromatics™ Transcend™ Premier Healthcare Colorants: bright, high-temperature solutions used in medical applications, offered in pre-colored formulations or color concentrates in vivid, opaque, and transparent colors that are fully bio-compatible per ISO 10993 standards.

PRODUCT BULLETIN Stan-Tone™ Colorants Epoxy Paste Colorants (EPX) Stan-Tone™ EPX epoxy paste colorants are select organic and inorganic pigments dispersed in a Bisphenol A undiluted epoxy resin with an epoxide equivalent of 185. The high pigment loading of these colorants allows for excellent economics. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Intended for use in a variety of thermoset epoxy systems • Based on heat stability, lightfastness, weatherability and toxicity • Use level is 1%–2% for thick casting and 5%–10% for a thin coating APPLICATIONS Stan-Tone EPX dispersions are suitable for use in a variety of applications, including: • Protective coatings • Adhesives • Epoxy flooring • Electrical potting • Composites • Laminates Stan-Tone Code Pigment Type Approx. % Pigment Specific Gravity Color Index Lightfastness WHITE 10EPX03 Titanium Dioxide, Rutile 57 1.95 PW-6 I/O YELLOW 12EPX01 Diarylide AAOT GS 25 1.22 PY-14 I 12EPX03 Diarylide HR RS 20 1.2 PY-83 I/O (Mass) 13EPX02 Isoindolinone RS 30 1.3 PY-110 I/O 13EPX03 Benzimidazolone GS 40 1.27 PY-151 I/O (Mass) 81EPX01 Iron Oxide 40 1.62 PY-42 I/O ORANGE 15EPX03 Benzimidazolone 30 1.26 PO-36 I/O RED 23EPX04 Quinacridone BS 25 1.21 PV-19 I/O 23EPX06 Specialty Naphthol BS 30 1.21 PR-170 I/O (Mass) C 25EPX01 Red 2B, Ca Salt Bs 24 1.27 PR-48:2 I/O (Mass) 28EPX01 Red 2B, Ba Salt YS 23 1.29 PR-48:1 I/O (Mass) 82EPX01 Iron Oxide, Light BS 40 1.67 PR-101 I/O 82EPX02 Iron Oxide, Dark BVS 40 1.68 PR-101 I/O 82EPX04 Iron Oxide, Light VYS 40 1.67 PR-101 I/O BLUE 40EXP03 Phthalocyanine GS 25 1.25 PB-15:3 I/O 40EXP05 Phthalocyanine RS 25 1.25 PB-15:3 I/O 42EXP02 Ultramarine 50 1.54 PB-29 I/O 49EXP01 Cobalt 50 1.83 PB-28 I/O GREEN 50EPX02 Phthalocyanine BS 18 1.34 PG-7 I/O 50EPX03 Phthalocyanine YS 25 1.42 PG-7 I/O 59EPX01 Chromium Oxide 40 1.64 PG-17 I/O VIOLET/MAGENTA 24EPX03 Quinacridone Violet 15 1.2 PV-19 I/O 24EPX04 Ultramarine Violet 50 1.66 PV-15 I/O 24EPX05 Quinacridone Magenta 20 1.21 PR-122 I/O 24EPX06 Benzimidazolone 20 1.2 PV-32 I/O 24EPX07 Carbazole Violet 15 1.2 PV-23 I/O BROWN/TAN 83EPX01 Iron Oxide, Light 39 1.64 PBr-6 I/O 83EPX02 Iron Oxide, Dark 40 1.66 PBr-6 I/O BLACK 90EPX01 Furnace - High Jet 14 1.23 PBk-7 I/O 90EPX04 Furnace - Medium 20 1.25 PBk-7 I/O 90EPX05 Iron Oxide 50 1.77 PBk-11 I/O EPX RS = Red Shade YS = Yellow Shade VYS = Very Yellow Shade BS = Blue Shade VBS = Very Blue Shade GS = Green Shade HR = Heat-Resistant LIGHTFASTNESS I = Indoor Only I/O = Indoor or Outdoor Mass = Outdoor Masstone Application Only C = Some Caution Advised www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.
