Fiber Additives
MagIQ™ Nonwoven Electret Additives
By introducing additives with charge storage properties, “charge traps” were created to capture the electret charge being applied to melt-blown non-woven material.

In addition to color uniformity, engineers also wanted a balance of stiffness, impact resistance and heat resistance.
Liking what they heard, the engineers decided to team up with Avient specialists in polymer distribution, colorants and additives to tackle the issue.
In addition, the natural-plus-additive concentrate package:

Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Laser Welding Additives for Medical Devices Laser welding has become a technology of choice to join plastic parts of complex medical devices.
Avient uses a “systems approach” to develop the laser welding solution most adapted to your project, taking into consideration the following aspects: • Transmitting and absorbing parts • Polymer type and grade • Dispersion of the additive in the final part • Sufficient and consistent loading of the additive • Part design: attention to flow separation at the welding interface • Color and opacitiy • Quality control – e.g. establish suitable control parameters (UV Visible Spectra) • Laser wavelength and processing parameter Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives formulated for laser welding are designed for use in healthcare applications.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Manufactured at four ISO 13485 certified sites, providing global consistency and increased security of supply • Documented change control beyond CAS number, reducing risk of change • Available as additive concentrates, ready-to-use additive formulations or ready-to-use additive/ colorant formulations for different polymers REGULATORY SUPPORT • Raw materials tested to: - ISO 10993-1 and USP biological evaluation - European Pharmacopeia 3.1.3/3.1.5 (polyolefin) - USP (polyethylene) - ICH Q3D elemental impurities • Registered Drug Master File (Type III) and/or Device Master File • Food contact established with FDA/EU* APPLICATION BULLETIN * FDA/EU compliance information available upon request; exceptions may occur Healthcare use limitations apply—see below.
