These materials
are semi-crystalline and deliver excellent chemical
resistance, low moisture uptake, and dimensional
stability similar to nylon (PA6 and PA66).
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Chemical resistance
• Maintaining high impact performance at low
temperatures
• Low moisture uptake
• Dimensional stability comparable to nylon
• Higher impact resistance than short fiber
alternatives
• Eco-conscious alternative to nylons
• More cost-effective solution than specialty
nylons
• Available in non-PFAS* formulations to achieve
UL 94 V-0 flame rating at 1.5 mm
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
These materials are for use in applications
traditionally made of metal requiring moisture,
chemical and cold impact performance
requirements, including:
• Industrial – pipes, tubing, fluid management
• Electrical & Electronics – connectors,
battery components, battery housings
• Transportation – under-the-hood fuel/
chemical contact components, non-structural
interior components
• Oil & Gas – fuel pump components, fuel doors
PRODUCT BULLETIN
* Non-PFAS flame-retardant (FR) grades are manufactured without
intentionally added PFAS-based raw materials.

PRODUCT BULLETIN
Cesa™ Fiber Tracer Concentrates
The textile supply chain is usually long and
complex, with several material and service suppliers
playing a role.
Cesa Fiber Tracer Concentrates
contain no hazardous raw materials and comply
with key fiber regulations.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-10/light-diffusion-case-study.pdf
Sourcing
materials from overseas made the company vulnerable
to quality inconsistencies and long lead times.
Instead of purchasing pre-fabricated acrylic
sheet that contained a costly diffusion additive, the
Smartbatch solution enabled the customer to reduce its
material costs by 50%.
This saved the customer over $25,000
in annual material costs in addition to resolving its
toughest design challenges.

PET is also a more user-friendly material; it can
enable better shape, handling, storage, opening,
pouring and resealing.
Monolayer PET is one of
the lightest weight packaging options reducing
raw material requirements and carbon emissions
during transportation.
