In synthetic fibers, recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) material from plastic bottles was the first recycled content used in textile products such as sportswear and technical textiles.

Achieve Sustainability Goals with Plastic

We have modified the existing ASTM D903 method for plastics in order to evaluate the adhesion of soft TPEs onto rigid thermoplastic. ENGINEERING PLASTIC SUBTRATES There are a number of plastic substrates that are used for various consumer applications. A single TPE chemistry can not bond to all the rigid plastic substrates as evidenced by the surface energies demonstrated in Figure 1.

Combined with the sale of our Performance Products and Solutions segment in 2019 and our acquisition of Clariant Color in 2020, we have completely overhauled our portfolio. Plastics are renowned for their durability, aesthetics, ease of handling and recyclability. In addition, we continue to engage and invest in the Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW).

OnColor™ Color Concentrates for Non-Phtalate PVC Formulations Plasticizers are a major component in PVC formulations. There are different chemistries, including formulations that contain phthalates and non-phthalate plasticizers. Due to the rise in non-phthalate plasticizer demand, Avient offers a range of color concentrates suitable for these formulations.
