With major consumer goods companies actively defining sustainability goals of 100 percent PCR polyolefin packaging, Avient has responded by developing Rejoin PCR Masterbatch in customizable colors and special effects. We understand that many consider the use of colorants and additives that rely on virgin resin carriers to nullify the claim of 100 percent PCR, so we worked to develop a solution that could help our customers deliver fully on their sustainability commitments,” said Bob Lee, marketing director, Color & Additives Asia at Avient.

The masterbatches are offered in pellet form and developed for optimal fiber coloration in the POY, FDY, DTY, ATY, BCF, spunbond and meltblown manufacturing processes. Developed for spin-dyeing, a fiber dyeing process that requires no water and less energy than other conventional dyeing methods​

A Pioneering Vision Correction Solution for the Developing World Avient proudly accepted the challenge to support the design and development of a diagnostic device that could easily and efficiently determine the eyeglass prescriptions for many under-resourced communities.

The company’s product engineers developed specifications that included thermal conductivity in plane from 4 to 21 W/m.K (in compliance with ASTM E1461); glow wire resistance of 850°C/0.8mm (IEC 606095-2-12); and enough dimensional stability to allow it to be overmolded directly on LED components. A collaborative team from the two companies looked at potential options before developing a material that combined two grades of Avient’s Therma-Tech™ thermal management formulations. 

Our portfolio includes Renol™ Fiber Colorants specifically developed for polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers and Remafin™ Fiber Colorants for polypropylene (PP) fibers and spunbond nonwovens. In addition, Avient has built a strong expertise in spin-dyeing based on decades of developing masterbatch solutions for the textile market and working with local and regional fiber producers and textile associations.
