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.

Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives PTFE-free and Non-halogen for Polycarbonate Polycarbonate is a material of choice for E&E products as it provides very good impact strength, dimensional stability, and heat resistance.Some applications require the use of flame-retardant solutions to increase safety and ensure compliance with fire hazard standards. Avient’s PTFE-free and non-halogen Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives for polycarbonate are formulated without PTFE and are non-halogen in accordance with the IEC 61249-2-21 standard.
