In collaboration with a leading German car producer, Avient was requested to reduce a dashboard carrier’s weight while keeping part performance and mechanical properties.
Using Hydrocerol with core-back molding technology, a process in which the mold is opened slightly to further reduce pressure and allow the foam core to expand, Avient helped the customer leverage density reduction to lower finished part weight.
Hydrocerol plays a critical role in an Avient-wide program to support a sustainable plastics industry.

In parts that fill from a thin wall to a thick section, the polymer may break away from the wall as it enters the thick section.
Lower elongation grades are easier to run in automatic degating tools.
For high elongation SEBS grades, hot runner tools with valve gates can be used.

Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
Avient Additives for Wire & Cable
• Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives: Flame-
retardant additives that add or improve flame
resistance.
The inclusion of these additives
can help a cable to pass flame resistance tests,
even if the resin originally used is not flame
retardant
• Cesa™ Light Additives: UV light stabilizers that
improve weather resistance and provide long
term protection against weather degradation
• Semi-conductive TPU formulations to
enhance cable performance
• Cesa™ Laser Additives: Includes laser-marking
additives for durable cable marking.

We are thrilled to add the Dyneema® brand and its unique technologies to Avient, further
expanding our growing composites portfolio,” said Robert M.
The addition of the Dyneema portfolio will raise Avient’s material offerings to the
highest levels on the performance spectrum of composites and engineered fibers.”
This would allow Avient to remain modestly levered at
2.9x adjusted EBITDA while also expanding adjusted EBITDA margins from 12% to 18%, the
highest amongst our formulator peers.”
