Avient introduces new high-impact Gravi-Tech™ density-modified formulations, developed to replace die-cast or machined metals in premium weighted applications while offering superior design freedom, manufacturing efficiency, and sustainability. The innovative hybrid product technology is developed to replace die-cast or machined metals to deliver both the look and weighted feel of metal in premium brand high-impact applications. Developed to meet the growing demand for applications with a luxurious look but with a cost-effective alternative to metal, the new formulations pass strict drop test requirements and provide excellent low-temperature impact performance.

First-generation Gravi-Tech Density Modified Formulations were developed to mimic the luxurious look, weight, and feel of die-cast or machined metals by using select metallic fillers and thermoplastic resin. Both are developed to offer comparable performance to conventional density-modified solutions but with less reliance on virgin thermoplastics, supporting the circular economy and reducing carbon footprint relative to fossil feedstock resin alternatives.  Gravi-Tech Density Modified Formulations were originally developed to provide an effective alternative to lead and other traditional metals,” said Matt Mitchell, director of global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Additives to preserve clarity and retain opacity developed for dental care products using WithStand™ Specialty color and additive Smartbatch™ concentrate developed with carbon fiber to produce desired effect for automotive interior OnColor™ HC Colorants used to streamline color development and production of dental floss containers

Mevopur™ Colorants represent a broad range of color concentrates and formulations, developed specifically for use in today’s complex healthcare applications, which meet or exceed requirements for regulations such as USP Class VI, ISO 10993, USP 661 and ICH Q3D. Versaflex™ HC BT218 is a medical-grade TPE developed specifically to handle the growing demand for and complexities of biopharmaceutical tubing. This service aligns material, technical, and manufacturing expertise to streamline product development and optimize supply chain and logistics.

L’Oréal recently expressed the need for a tool to help simplify the process of developing color with recycled resin. Having identified optimized colorants for the packaging of the Redken line worldwide, Avient’s PCR Color Prediction Service helped L’Oréal simplify overall color development with recycled resin. Avient’s Color Prediction Service allowed us to use local PCR grades wherever the business is – if the color is for Europe, we use the European grade,” said Chantal Nestor-Saury, product development manager at L’Oréal.
