Why Invest In PolyOne?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2024-07/Colorants _ Additives for Appliances Brochure.pdf
COLOR AND EFFECTS
Color Harmony
If you are aiming for a homogeneous look, we
can develop specific colorants so that different
components of your appliance are the same color
no matter which polymer types and grades they
are made from.
We offer a wide range of color concentrates for different polymer grades, from standard to
engineering polymers, that fulfill the vertical burning (V-0; V-1; V-2) and horizontal burning (HB) tests.
For added convenience, they can be combined with color
but also with other additives, such as flame retardants, antistatic or laser marking additives, into a single
combination masterbatch.
