Homepage // News Center // Avient Featuring Colorants and Additives for Recycling Challenges at the 2023 Plastics Recycling Conference NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. – February 27, 2023 – Avient Corporation will exhibit and participate at the Plastics Recycling Conference next week, highlighting its polymer solutions that help make plastics more recyclable and improve recycled resin.   The Plastics Recycling Conference is the largest North American gathering of plastics recycling and sustainability professionals.

They can be used in the extrusion of polyethylene or polypropylene to reduce the friction between the molten polymer and metal, enabling the polymers to be extruded without melt fracture. These non-PFAS process aids work by migrating to the metal surface and reducing friction in the extruder and at the die. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Reduces melt fracture leading to fast time to clear • Reduces die buildup • Improves process efficiency • Retains ability to seal and print • Available in both solid and liquid • Offers low concentration efficiency • Reduces power requirements • Does not interact with other additives APPLICATIONS • Blown film • Profile extrusion • Tubing and pipe extrusion • Wire and cable applications • Extruded sheet • Applications in both virgin resin and PCR Copyright © 2024, Avient Corporation.

Plastics are among the most useful and impactful materials on earth. Plastics help us move faster, work smarter, feel better and have more fun. While the value of plastics is undeniable, we fully recognize that plastics and other materials are ending up in places they should not—like our waterways and oceans.

Tests conducted by PolyOne on cable extruded from ECCOH 5702 specialty polymers reveal a CoF up to 75% lower than standard LSFOH (Low Smoke and Fume, Non-Halogen) formulations.

Extruded products include Strength Members, Trace Wire, Micro Cable and Ruggedized Cable.

Nymax BIO formulations can be both injection molded and extruded, making them suitable for automotive, consumer, industry, and building and construction applications.

Polyamide (i.e. nylon) is preferred plastic in many high end applications due to its crystalline structure and high melting temperature. TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability. We have modified ASTM D903 method for plastics to evaluate the adhesion of soft TPE onto rigid thermoplastic.
