This solution permits
black and dark color polymers to be detected by
near-infrared (NIR) automatic sorting equipment,
enabling subsequent recycling.
Automatic sorting equipment
in waste facilities relies on the reflectance of NIR
wavelengths to identify polymers and properly
sort packaging waste by plastic material.
The formulation used enables black packaging
of various polymers to be sorted into the correct
polymer stream, and sent for recycling instead of
landfill or incineration, which is a key requirement
of the circular economy system.

Melting Point: Melting point is the temperature at which
a crystalline polymer becomes a disordered liquid.
4.
Important to note, semi-crystalline polymers feature crystalline regions
dispersed within amorphous material.
For amorphous polymers like PSU, the cooling rate in FFF is critical.

CESA™ Slip Additives
Lubrication
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Many polymer processing operations need lubrication
to improve the process flow and/or part.
They act as plasticizers to improve the
flow of the polymer through the process (extrusion,
injection molding, extrusion blow molding, etc),
reducing the heat and energy needed.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-11/Cesa Fiber Tracer Concentrates Product Bulletin.pdf
Cesa™ Fiber
Tracer Concentrates are polymer solutions that
include a taggant, unique to the customer/product
line, which is incorporated into the fibers during the
spin-dyeing process.
Fiber producers can also add
the tracer concentate to shredded waste polyester
and polyamide, and convert them together into
polymer pellets.
APPLICATIONS
Cesa Fiber Tracer Concentrates are particularly
recommended for apparel, sportswear, and home
textiles to support brand ownership and labels
such as those for recycled content, “made in”, and
bio-polymer content.
