Available as a solid masterbatch, the additive can be extruded with packaging resins without the need for extra equipment.

Colors can be processed using standard equipment, are available in standard finishes, and can also be customized in various polymers or recycled resins for multiple applications.

CLEVELAND – May 27, 2025 – Avient Corporation, an innovator of materials solutions, today announced the availability of Colorant Chromatics™ PVDF Processing Aids, specially formulated to improve the melt processing of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) resins.

Avient provides a range of inks used for striping, offset printing and top coating of fluoropolymers and other high temperature resins used for wire insulation applications.

This digital color service supports PCR resin coloration by digitally illustrating the color possibilities or limitations of certain types of PCR, helping to simplifying the overall decision-making process and shortening the time-to-launch for new product ranges.

The resins have bio-based content up to 95 percent, as calculated to ASTM D6866 standard.

When added to PET resins during the injection stretch-blow molding (ISBM) process, Smartbatch Frost Collection provides a soft, cool, and icy look with better slip-resistant performance than typical PET bottles.

Formulations can also be customized to meet specific customer needs based on multiple resins.

If local and regional customers require, these Complēt and OnForce formulations can be tailored to meet specific application requirements by utilizing a range of engineering resins, from polypropylene (PP) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) to polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polyphthalamide (PPA) for power tools, sports equipment, utility vehicle, furniture, and outdoor recreation applications.

The composite material used to make this part includes a custom-formulated thermoset epoxy resin, which also has good corrosion and chemical resistance.
