These products combine the robust quality of BASF’s Ultrason® polyarylethersulfones (PAES) with the advanced color formulation expertise of Colorant Chromatics™. By encouraging the reuse of products and reducing reliance on single-use plastics and packaging, our solutions play a crucial role in advancing a circular economy. 

Wear generally occurs around the gate; thus inserts are recommended for large-volume production.

Plaques for the measurement of adhesion were prepared by injection molding TPE materials onto cold inserted rigid thermoplastic substrates.

The CORE™ VBX Series of these vinyl powder formulations are designed specifically for use in automotive interiors, providing OEMs with superior haptics for items such as door and instrument panels.

continues to advance its fiber colorant technology, enabling textile manufacturers, converters and brands to increase sustainability, operational efficiencies, and market response rates to drive their success in the global textile industry. Our advanced fiber colorant technology is critical to helping these manufacturers address sustainability, production flexibility, and speed-to-market goals to stay on top of these trends."

Chemical Recycling: Sometimes referred to as advanced or molecular recycling in the plastics world, chemical recycling of composites involves breaking down the composite’s matrix resin into molecular components by pyrolysis or solvolysis, allowing for the recovery of its fiber reinforcement. Embracing advanced recycling techniques, optimizing manufacturing processes, and engaging stakeholders across the supply chain are crucial steps on this journey.

Developed for advanced applications in transportation, these materials contain a minimum of 30% bio-based content, and are in current evaluations at several key automotive OEMs. These natural fiber-filled solutions can be processed on standard machinery and tooling at low injection molding temperatures and short cycle times, and will complement the advanced long and short fiber solutions in PolyOne’s current portfolio.

The company remains dedicated to advancing its sustainability goals and contributing to a more sustainable future for the industry and the planet.   Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy
