Our innovative portfolio of colorants, additives, and services combine to form the ideal environment for sustainable solutions to thrive and support Avient’s 2030 sustainability goals.”  

Our team of healthcare experts can provide guidance on which form is more suitable for the project.

Reduced costs: The new material was less expensive than fabric – in raw form and in manufacturing costs.

The “cool factor” for tools such as knives, paddles or survival gear often comes in the form of edgy aesthetics or added functionality.

The colorant is in the form of concentrate pellets added to the polymer pellets during the extrusion and melting process.

PolyOne Specialty Coatings and Inks Kennesaw, GA Plant Achieves ISO 9001-2008 Certification CLEVELAND – PolyOne today announced that its Specialty Coating and Inks plant in Kennesaw, GA recently achieved ISO 9001-2008 certification.

For every polymer form and function, there is a mineral, fiber, metal or carbon filler that will maximize its performance.  Limestone is composed mostly of the mineral calcite (CaCO3) but may contain dolomite or another crystalline form of calcium carbonate called aragonite.1   Copper filler, often in powder or flake form, is also a good substitute for aluminum, as it has a much higher melting point and doesn’t corrode like aluminum will.

However, design flexibility is limited because, as thermosets, finished parts cannot be post-formed. Various forming processes and application examples of CFRTP materials will be explored later in this article. Secondary forming and methods for manufacturing complex geometries

Avient provides these flame-retardant additives in the form of concentrates, allowing producers to combine them with color and other additives to meet performance requirements.

They are available in liquid or solid form and can result in 10-20% less plastic needed.
