Geon BIO materials are formulated with PolyOne’s plant-based reFlex™ 300 plasticizer,” said James Stephenson, director, Global Marketing, Geon Performance Materials. This creates a truly non-phthalate flexible vinyl that performs at levels equal to or better than materials containing petroleum-based plasticizers. Caption: Geon™ BIO Flexible Solutions are formulated with reFlex™ 300 plasticizer, derived from soybean oil and certified as 99 percent biobased by the USDA BioPreferred® Program.

Avient Announces Phoenix Location to Serve as a ColorWorks™ Design & Technology Center, Expanding Innovative Color Solutions and Guidance for Plastic Color and Design   Avient customers can visit these facilities to work with designers and create innovative effects for plastic color and design, using industry trends to streamline product development. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

The exposition is Central and Eastern Europe's most prominent event for the plastics processing industry. By incorporating such additives early in the recycling process or blending them with virgin resin, the degradation of material can be significantly reduced, ensuring the quality and performance of recycled plastics. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Incorporating flame retardant additives can help mitigate fire hazards by increasing the ignition resistance of plastics, reducing the speed of flame spread, reducing heat release, and reducing smoke and fume generation. Chemical foaming agents are successfully used in plastics to cut weight from parts without compromising mechanical properties. They are available in liquid or solid form and can result in 10-20% less plastic needed.

Smartheat™ Infrared Absorbers are additives that reduce the amount of energy required during bottle manufacture. Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) is an organization representing the voice of the European plastics recyclers who reprocess plastic waste into high-quality material destined for the production of new articles. UK Plastic Pact In January of 2019, Avient joined The UK Plastics Pact, a collaborative initiative committed to tackling plastic pollution.

ElectriPlast Corp. is a leading technology innovator in conductive plastics with a broad intellectual property portfolio and deep application development expertise. Its core material, ElectriPlast®, is an electrically conductive resin-based material whose properties allow it to be molded into infinite shapes and sizes associated with plastics and rubbers, while reducing component weight by 40 to 60%. Integral is a leader in conductive hybrid plastics, having over 50 issued patents for conductive plastic.

Reduce carbon emissions and preform AA while minimizing the risk of off-taste in bottle contents. ColorMatrix Capture Oxygen Scavenger works by scavenging oxygen in both the bottle headspace and that passes through the bottle wall, helping enhance product protection and extend the shelf life of oxygen-sensitive beverages.  CycleWorks™ Innovation Center For Plastic Recycling
