THE IMPACT For the manufacturer, Trilliant™ HC specialty engineered materials provided a number of advantages that contributed to the success of the new product line: • Reduced Cycle Time: The high flow properties of the Trilliant HC formulation allowed the manufacturer to produce warp-free parts that require less packing and cooling time, resulting in a 40% cycle time reduction

THE CHALLENGE Nearly 110 years after it was founded, WillowWood continues to fulfill its mission to free the bodies and spirits of amputees.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Multipurpose, multi-resin colorant concentrates • Formulated with high quality, heavy metal-free pigments • Carrier system designed for compatibility across different resin systems • Samples available with quick turnaround in small lots for customer evaluation • Available in a wide range of stock and standard colors* • Low LDRs—typically 1–3% • Low minimum order quantities for both stock and non-stock colors * Color availability dependent on region or country PRODUCT BULLETIN MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Omnicolor Multipurpose Colorants can be used for injection molding, blow molding, or profile and sheet extrusion processes.

Formulations are heavy metal free and manufactured using state- of-the-art pigment dispersion techniques that improve homogenization and color distribution during injection molding.

Through Avient Academy, associates can participate in classroom, online, and webinar based training sessions. Non-toxic and heavy-metal-free ingredients and biodegradable carrier resins. Also, our CESA™ Additive Masterbatches are utilized for solar back sheets to enhance the halogen-free mono material structure and protect against voltage breakdowns.

Cesa™ Stat OCA0025695 reduces electric charges with a sustainable antistatic effect and keeps the surface dust-free and clean.

The Avient team worked with the manufacturer to meet specific property needs and developed a customized solution that added soft-touch, ergonomic, and friction-free features.

Processors are looking to replace current process additives containing PFAS with non-PFAS fluorine-free solutions that exhibit performance characteristics similar to traditional fluoropolymer- based solutions.
