This non-nylon-based additive is compatible with recycled PET (rPET), making it an excellent option for brands looking to incorporate higher levels of recycled material (up to 100%) in their packaging.

CLEVELAND – April 28, 2020 – PolyOne today announced the launch of ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ 4020G, a non-nylon based, low-haze oxygen scavenger for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) rigid packaging.

Currently, 3D MIDs with LDS technology are widely used in antennas (consumer electronics), automotive components, medical devices, and 5G base stations.

In comparison to steel, Fiber-Line synthetic fiber-based strength members are 5 to 10 times stronger, and offer improved chemical, corrosion, abrasion, creep, and fatigue resistance.

A variety of base resins can be used to create Surround formulations to either concentrate (intended to let down at the press) or direct-to-mold fiber loadings. 

Omnicolor™ color concentrates are based on a multipurpose compatible carrier system.

Based on earlier successful projects, the OEM design team turned to Avient for a selection of suitable thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).

Declarations based on pre-testing of the ingredients we use to standards typically required for medical and diagnostic devices (biological evaluations ISO10993, USP , for class VI devices); and for pharmaceutical packaging and drug-contacting materials (biological evaluation USP, EP chapter and requirements USP and ICHQ3D extractable metals).

All four sites are ISO 13485 certified and use a harmonized raw material range as the base for globally available Mevopur standard portfolios and for custom formulations.

Many metals can approximate linear elastic behavior, but polymer behavior is not so easily simplified to one modulus, making it more challenging to predict performance based on a data sheet.
