With Fabric FX masterbatch and a textured
mold surface, manufacturers have a drop-in solution
to design novel parts that appear to be covered in
textiles.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Fabric FX can be formulated to include properties
such as UV color protection and anti-scratch
performance
• Fabric FX can be processed on standard molding
machinery
• Different matrix materials can be enhanced with
Fabric FX, including ABS, PC/ABS, PB, and unfilled
or talc-filled PP
• There is no limitation on the graining that can be
used; the fabric effect will differ depending on the
grain effect engraved in the tool
• If parts are extruded or a mold is not engraved,
final parts will have an attractive speckled
appearance, but will not be textured
TYPICAL USES
Fabric FX concentrates are suitable for any application
that could benefit from an enhanced textile-like
appearance.

They also provided mold
fill evaluations to evaluate the best injection parameter
set up to process Therma-Tech in the respective mold.
In using a thermoplastic, Elausa has been able to
simplify manufacturing, now injection molding the
complex heat sink in a single step, saving production
time and increasing capacity.

FOAMING PREDICITION SERVICE
Avient Design uses Autodesk® Moldflow® simulation
software1 to provide 3D simulations of parts foamed
with Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents during
the mold filling phase.
The service is currently
available for standard injection molding processes.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Provides a mold-filling study
• Helps maximize part weight reduction
• Predicts mechanical properties
• Enables the calculation of necessary clamping
force
• Reduces physical trials
• Optimizes tool design and production processes
KEY APPLICATIONS
• Components made from polypropylene (PP),
talcum filled, and glass fiber filled PP with a
minimum part thickness of 2mm
• Automotive structural parts e.g., door panels,
dashboard carriers
• Consumer goods e.g., interior fridge parts,
transport boxes and composters, vacuum
cleaner base panels

The process is easy to implement with traditional
packaging polymers using standard stretch blow
molding machinery.
PRODUCT BULLETIN
APPLICATIONS
• Beverages
• Personal Care
• Consumer Goods
Compatible with:
• PET
• Injection blow molding
TECHNOLOGY COMPONENTS
Impress is formulated using an additive that adds
a brilliant ultra-glossy appearance to packaging
made with semi-crystalline polymers.
The additive
creates tiny bubbles inside the semi-crystalline
resins which, when stretched during blow molding,
reflect light and shine for a high gloss, metallic
appearance.

HOW PHASE BARRIERS MADE OF AVIENT TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR MOLDED
CASE CIRCUIT BREAKERS
Will not fail over the MCCB’s expected
service life – Avient materials are flexible, have
low moisture absorption, and have the needed
dielectric integrity, leading to a more reliable phase
barrier.

DRAFT
The draft on a part is a taper on the walls
perpendicular to the parting line to allow the
part to release from the mold.
Figure 11 shows an
example of a standard spiral molded-in insert
that does a good job of minimizing sharp edges.
That’s because
the plastic will shrink away from the mold wall
due to the increased heat in these areas.
