PP FR 8-6 LMS-1000

Filled formulations in a wide range of durometers, available in food contact grades, and overmolds to PP

Specialty TPEs formulated for a multitude of uses, suitable for both injection molding and extrusion, overmolds to PP.

They are available across multiple polymer systems, including PA6, PA66, PC, POM, PBT, PPS, and PK, and provide comparable performance to conventional internally lubricated grades (link to full press release here).  

Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified PP-Based Formulations: new, high-impact metallization grades developed to replace die-cast or machined metals while delivering the look and weighted feel of metal in premium brand applications.

Cesa™ Non-PFAS Process Aid for Extrusion: for use in polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) applications, it reduces friction between the polymer and the metal during extrusion comparable to a traditional processing aid but is formulated without fluoropolymers which may be classifiable as per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS) and will be presented during Avient’s technical seminar at NPE, “PFAS Alternatives: 2024 and Beyond,” by Sean Bernhardt, Senior Research and Development Manager, Color, Additives, & Inks, Americas at Avient, on May 7 at 3 p.m. and May 8 at 1 p.m.

Remafin™ Fiber Colorants for PP

Available in North America, injection-moldable reSound™ R VX TPEs utilize 25% (PCR) and up to 40 percent (PIR) recycled content, and both grades can be overmolded onto polypropylene (PP). More recently, with the divestiture of the PP&S segment in 2019 and the acquisition of Clariant Masterbatch in 2020, we have fundamentally repositioned our portfolio to that of a true specialty enterprise—from which we can springboard to even greater heights in the future.
