PSU resin has the lowest
temperature requirements, but provides the
highest clarity.
FEATURES AND COLORS
PSU, PES and PPSU masterbatches are manufactured
using 100% prime virgin resin.
Ten standard colors are available for each type of
resin.

Gravi-Tech™ REC Recycled Formulations
Gravi-Tech™ REC recycled formulations are density
modified engineered polymers based on recycled
resin and/or recycled filler from post-industrial
recycled (PIR) and/or post-consumer recycled (PCR)
sources.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Customized density offering a wide range of
specific gravities (1.2–11 gm/cm3)
• Based on recycled resin from PIR and PCR
sources
• Broad modulus range, from very flexible to very
rigid grades
• Corrosion resistance that withstands oxidization
for long-term use and benefit
• Chemical resistance can be adapted depending
on base resin as required
• Provides visual surface effects, aesthetics, and
cool touch
• Design flexibility and processing ease
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Applications in packaging and consumer goods in
which a more sustainable solution is preferred:
• Cosmetic caps and closures
• Perfume caps
• Spirit bottle caps
• Luxury boxes
• Handles and knobs
SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS
• Formulated with recycled resin from
post-industrial recycled (PIR) and/or
post-consumer recycled (PCR) sources including
ocean bound plastic waste
• Reduces waste and supports the circular
economy
• Reduces carbon footprint compared to fossil
feedstock alternatives
• Simplifies manufacturing and lowers costs
versus metal

Body Adhesive
This adhesive is a solvent containing the
parent resin of the parts to be bonded.
This yields low stresses (vs.
polyester and phenolic adhesives).
Melt Temperature
The viscosity of Gravi-Tech materials is higher
than with NEAT resins due to the amount of filler
content.

Then, the team researched the best combination of
additive and carrier resin for the application.
As an added
benefit, Avient designed a universal carrier that enabled
the manufacturer to use the same additives across a
variety of olefins, elastomers, and other resins.
Coupled with their ability to be used across
a variety of different resins, these antimicrobial
additives provide significant value.

ColorMatrix™ Optica™ PET Blue Toners & Colors: developed for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins and preforms, designed to enhance recyclability and reduce yellowing that occurs during the recycling process.
Colorant Chromatics™ UV Laser Marking Technology for Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene resins (FEP): can outperform traditional and infra-red marking, enabling a permanent, gentle, cost-effective ultraviolet (UV) marking with 60%- 80% percent contrast, such as required for cables in aerospace.

How do they differ from commodity or engineered resins?
Semi-crystalline resins have a sharply defined mp and Tg.
Therefore, pre-colored
resin is highly recommended
