Smartbatch™ Fabric FX
Color and Additives Enhance Perceived Value with Look of Fabric
Smartbatch™ Fabric FX color and additive
concentrates from Avient are a hassle-free means
for manufacturers to turn plain, smooth polymer
surfaces into those that mimic the soft appearance
of textile.
There is no limit on colors that can be used to create
the fabric look.
While the effect is most visible on light
colored parts, the appearance of dark parts is also
enhanced.
