Avient ColorMatrix has pioneered the development of liquid
color dispersions since the 1970s and is now considered the
leading global innovator and supplier of liquid colorants for
thermoplastic and silicone applications.
COLOR COMPLIANCE
REGULATORY ADVICE AND DOCUMENTATION
COLOR
SUSTAINABILITY
Reducing carbon footprint in the way that a colorant is
formulated and processed has become an increasing
priority for plastics processors.
Manufacturers operating lean manufacturing
systems can also benefit by driving down inventory
requirements even further
• Avient’s advanced liquid systems can be run at lower
temperatures whilst maintaining stability allowing
important energy cost and carbon footprint savings to
be made

Cesa™ Fiber Additives
Flame Retardants for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens
Ignitability and flame spread, with or without an
additional radiant heat source, are a particular
concern for fibers used in indoor applications,
or indeed anywhere where human lives could be
endangered.
They help
make fibers more resistant to ignition and control
flame propagation, smoke and heat generation.
APPLICATIONS
Cesa Fiber Additives for flame retardancy are
recommended for spun-dyed PP, PET and PA fibers
used in applications such as automotive textiles,
home and office furnishings, clothing,
and carpeting.
