Sustainability experts from Avient will be on hand to help address recycling challenges in packaging, drawing on research conducted at Avient’s CycleWorks™ Innovation Center that focuses on mechanical recycling challenges and solutions.   Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany – October 9, 2023 – Avient Corporation, a leading provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions and services, announced its latest offering, Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs), which will be launched at the upcoming Fakuma International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing. 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. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

PolyOne will present an early look at the advanced materials on display to a group of plastic processors during the Chinaplas TechTalk Open Forum being held today. Added-value functionality includes conductivity, radio-opacity and cross-linking. Stat-Tech™ Dissipative and Conductive Materials: provides specially engineered, antistatic, ESD and RFI/EMI shielding performance for critical electronic equipment applications.

CLEVELAND – New developments in natural fiber reinforced materials, conductive thermoplastics, and specialty engineered materials for metal replacement will be highlights for PolyOne at the upcoming Fakuma trade show. In addition, experts from the company will make 15-minute Tech Talk presentations daily at the PolyOne exhibit (Hall B5, Stand 5316) to help plastics processors quickly learn more about these advanced technologies. The technology is successful largely due to the thermally conductive properties of PolyOne’s Therma-Tech™ engineered polymers.
