The color can be combined with additives for a single masterbatch solution that provides coloration and enhances the properties of spun-dyed fibers. Find out how the way you dye fibers can have an impact on the sustainability of your fibers. Discover how our fiber tracer technology can help confirm the origin of fibers in your textile products

Joining Edgetek™ PKE and LubriOne™ PKE materials launched in 2021, Complēt PKE formulations can provide alternatives to nylon (PA) and acetal (POM) based formulations, offering added supply security and sustainable benefits.   When compared to alternatives during standard testing, these materials can help reduce carbon footprint over the product lifecycle, producing 61% less CO₂ than PA66, 46% less than PA6, and 30% less than POM. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

The FDA no objection letter confirms that the recycled material included in this formulation can be used for manufacturing certain food-contact articles. Available in North America, this PCR content formulation offers comparable performance to prime TPEs and can provide a more sustainable option in applications such as toothbrush grips and other personal care items, as well as certain FDA food-contact items like reusable crates.

Co-extrusion protective film can also help producers achieve their sustainability goals,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. It can also be recycled as thermoplastic material.”  Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation

In addition to booster pump control heads, the technology can be extended to pump housings, diffusers, impellers, water softeners, valves, actuators, flow meters, flanges, seal plates, motor mounting plates, motor lock rings, and union connectors. It also features extremely quiet operation, and can be oriented either vertically or horizontally so that customers can install it easily in the limited space near mechanical components.

These grades can be customized to achieve a wide breadth of physical and mechanical properties to meet the specifications of any OEM. We’re helping our customers address current trends with a low odor product that can withstand the rigors of underhood specifications. PHOTO CAPTION: PolyOne’s new Maxxam™ LO for underhood HVAC components can support an OEM’s effort to improve vehicle interior air quality.

In solvolysis, the chain length of matrix polymers is reduced toward monomers while removing the matrix from the fibers so that both the fibers and matrix chemical products can be recovered. Composites can be ground into small particles for use as engineered fillers or maintained at larger scales where fibers remain of reasonable length to be reused as fiber reinforcement in their next life.   Likewise, utilizing post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials as composite components can significantly reduce the carbon footprint* of those composites.

PET is a popular choice for food and beverage packaging, affording high clarity with design flexibility, and can be easily recycled multiple times, unlike alternative packaging materials. Additives are often included in PET packaging to help protect contents and extend shelf life, but they can decrease packaging clarity.

With our new ECCOH 5702, workers can more easily guide it through conduit, even those with very complex designs and shapes, which reduces installation costs.” For outdoor applications, ECCOH 5702 solutions can be UV stabilized, including formulations that pass the SEPAP accelerated aging test. Wire and cable manufacturers can learn more about this new solution from PolyOne at its stand (Hall 9/B50) this week at the WIRE trade show in Düsseldorf.  About PolyOne PolyOne Corporation, with 2015 revenues of $3.4 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

Based on color science and proven by scientific data, the digital tool can decrease complexity where different grades of PCR are used and is able to help optimize the ratio of virgin resin to PCR, in order to achieve the best acceptable rendering.  The PCR Color Prediction Service can help shorten the time-to-launch of new product ranges, allowing fast and reliable checks prior to initiating sample development.  This can help simplify the overall decision-making process for brand owners and technical colorists, and help shorten the time-to-launch of new product ranges.
