Waste reduction: A disposable bladder within the collapsible tote can help minimize concern surrounding liquid residue that could be hazardous. Compared to traditional IBC totes, the liquid is more efficiently evacuated through use of a winder, thereby reducing residual waste and leading to added cost savings.

Composition Large furnaces are used to melt silica sand, limestone, and various other minerals to liquid form. The liquid is then extruded through bushings and are coated (sized) to help bundle the filaments and prepare the fibers for composite resin interface.

COLORMATRIX™ FLEXONE™ A Sustainable Solution for Liquid Metering FLEXONE – LIQUID METERING SOLUTION ColorMatrix™ FlexOne™ is a single unit designed to meet current and future liquid metering for a range of applications within the polymer industry. The extremely versatile FlexOne works uniquely with Avient’s patented PlanetPak™ delivery containers to provide liquid metering. Once connected, FlexOne self-calibrates its output and then tracks the input signal from the host machine allowing the unit to accurately meter the required color or additive for the process.

It is available in liquid color form for injection molding applications using polyolefin resins. Avient’s exclusive production system specifically addresses the need for small volume requirements of color. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Rapid turnaround for small volume delivery • Competitive and flat pricing for small volume purchases • Faster color development and matching • Supported with regulatory and technical expertise MARKETS & APPLICATIONS The ColorMatrix Small Order Service is ideal for injection molders who use small amounts and a variety of liquid color across a variety of polyolefin resin applications.
