Consequently, many PCR grades are excluded. Predict final colors, based on a PCR grade and concentration Define PCR color specification limits and find PCR grades to achieve a target color

These new grades offer application and design engineers a durable solution that reduces disinfectant-related failures, like cracking and crazing, so products and surfaces can last longer and look better.”  Additionally, all grades are available in a natural color, allowing molded-in-color options for a broad range of durable, consumer goods. The flame-retardant grade in the series is formulated to meet UL-94 rating 5VA at 3.0 mm and V-0 at 1.5 mm.

Avient unveils new grades of Cesa™ Withstand™ to include antimicrobial and antifungal additives for TPU film-laminated products and devices in applications where combating microbe development is highly important.   These new grades are developed to enhance the performance of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film-laminated products and devices in applications where combating microbe development is highly important.   The two new available grades of Cesa Withstand for TPU film can meet the specific anti-bacterial and anti-mold protection needs of medical beds, transparent tent components, and ice bags.

For grades which require drying, a moisture level below 0.1% is required. The color masterbatch carrier should be compatible with the overmold grade selected. Harder grades will set up faster than softer grades and are easier to eject.

POMMERLOCH, Luxembourg – June 17, 2020 – Today, PolyOne announced it is adding production of both post-industrial recycled nylon grades (Nymax™ PIR)  and bio-based thermoplastic elastomers (reSound™ OM) in Europe. Consisting of four overmolding grades compatible with rigid polypropylene and one suited to ABS, all grades are formulated for durability, property retention, and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs.

The new grade offers greater design flexibility and more efficient processing compared to metals traditionally used in luxury packaging caps and closures. They offer a more sustainable alternative than density-modified grades based on prime or virgin polymers. The new Gravi-Tech REC GT5200-5089 C grade is manufactured in Europe and is commercially available.
