Color and Additives Solutions Overview Colorant and additives overview and capabilities

In addition, organizations such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW) have emerged to foster meaningful sustainability improvements by mobilizing manufacturers and brands. The use of multiple materials, color, and certain additives can add to the recycling complexity or limit recyclability.

The adhesive properties of thermoplastics enable the construction of sandwich panels and reinforcement of materials such as wood and metal through thermal lamination without requiring additional adhesives. The existing solution — reinforcing the latch area with a steel plate — added vehicle weight and involved additional manufacturing processes, increasing time and cost.

We provide customers with additives, scavengers, and toners that improve the quality of recycled PET. Avient’s additives can improve processability during the bottle blowing phase and improve the mechanical strength of bottles.

In addition to its electrical conductivity, Stat-Tech TPEs offer benefits compared to silicone and thermoset rubber, including simplified manufacturing due to single-step fabrication, more design freedom for complex geometries, and 2-component overmolding directly onto polymer substrates, reducing processing steps. Additional food contact compliance grades are also available.  

These new additions to the reSound REC TPE portfolio are comprised of 60 percent post-consumer recycled content, while delivering performance attributes comparable to those of traditional products – including aesthetics, haptics and physical properties. For further environmental protection, the new Edgetek™ PKE materials include an NHFR additive, providing flame retardant performance to the UL94 V0 standard.

Hydrocerol™ Foaming Agents: These additives are commonly used in consumer goods and automotive components to reduce part weight without compromising stiffness or mechanical properties. A range of specialty additives for sustainable packaging: These products improve the quality of PCR and enable greater recycled content, including:
