For
example, a TPE that can bond to PC does not bond to PP, vice versa.
The failure mode is cohesive on PP and adhesive on all other substrates.

Avient Joint Study with Borealis Reveals Wide Range of Color Options for Recycled Plastics
The study also demonstrated that using Borcycle M grades along with Avient’s OnColor™ near-infrared (NIR) detectable colorants can produce a recyclable, neutral black which enables better automatic sorting for recycling.
Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy

• Minimize yellow / amber color tone of PEI and PES that
detracts from the perception of quality for cooking and
food service appliances
• Maintain inherent heat and steam resistance of PEI and
PES
• Food contact compatibility
• Colorants counteracted yellow tones without
sacrificing heat and steam resistance
• Achieved a more intense blue-gray shade
that reinforces appliance quality and
cleanliness and improves perception of the
