M E C H A N I C A L H V A C D O O R F L A P
• Processability was key as the part had to be injection
compression molded due to its extremely thin nature
• Copper resistance
• Light weight
• Anti-static
• Low VOC
• Worked in close collaboration with the customer to
understand key design challenges and needs
• Streamlined the development process through global
presence, working locally in Europe while also running
trials in Asia
• Re-designed the part to provide a 90% weight
reduction
• Utilized material science expertise to create a custom
formulation that improved resistance to copper
deposits and enabled injection compression molding

Whether you are using color for functional or aesthetic purposes, careful consideration of each of
the following points will prove valuable in your color selection and implementation:
• Is your color formulation and polymer fully compatible and optimized for your production
process?
To ensure you have a formulation that will perform
to its maximum effect, your liquid colorant should:
• maintain consistent particulate dispersion and remain fully stable during storage,
dispensing and processing
• be engineered to be fully compatible with your particular polymer and production
process set-up
• be fully supported with dispensing equipment and expert technical services
INTELLIGENT FORMULATION
In addition, advances in liquid carrier
vehicle systems mean that today liquid
colorants can be highly engineered
to ensure compatibility with an
increasing range of polymer types.
Avient delivers globally consistent formulations to its customers around the world.
