For example, automotive designers may choose materials for vehicle interior surfaces to create the perception of quality and luxury. TPEs can be used alone, or these softer materials can be overmolded onto a rigid plastic substrate using co-injection or insert injection-molding technology. The result is an outer layer of TPE material over a rigid substrate that adds a distinct, soft-touch feel to the stiffness and strength of the supporting structure.

Natural cork, and even corks made of ground natural material, can allow oxygen to enter the bottle, occasionally spoiling the wine.     Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

These antibacterial and antifungal additives reduce growth of bacteria, mold and fungus on the surface and through the thickness of the plastic part.

We have come to rely on this common plastic because it is convenient, lightweight, safe, cost effective and highly recyclable. THE CHALLENGES Improving rPET Quality • Reduce yellowing, improve color and assure IV uniformity Enhancing Bottle Performance • Improve bottle strength, reduce acetaldehyde and minimize thread pulls & blowouts that cause high scrap rates Reducing Carbon Footprint • Reduce energy consumption and raw material usage while driving product efficiencies OUR SOLUTIONS Aligning our work with sustainability demands, we address those challenges for rPET producers, convertors and brand owners alike with technologies to improve both quality and performance, ensuring the recyclability of plastic packaging. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Available in a wide range of customizable colors, these impact-modified nylon formulations eliminate secondary painting processes—unlike traditional materials such as painted plastics or metals—providing the added manufacturing and sustainability benefits of reducing energy use and removing VOC emissions.
