Recycled-content TPEs and polyamides
Available in North America, injection-moldable reSound R VX TPEs utilize 25 percent (PCR) and up to 40 percent (PIR) recycled content, and both grades can be overmolded onto polypropylene (PP).
TPEs, as well as recycled nylon 6 and 66, are commercially available in North America.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-11/Capture Oxygen Scavenger Product Bulletin.pdf
Capture is recognized by the Association of Plastics
Recyclers (APR) to meet Critical Guidance based
upon its recyclability with PET bottles.
During the sorting
process, the closure is separated from the PET bottle
and recycled with the polyolefin stream.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Extends product shelf life and reduces
waste
• Maintains clarity and aesthetics of the bottle
while keeping contents fresh
• Located in the closure, eliminating the need
to add a scavenger to the container wall
• Allows unlimited design freedom, including
lightweighting
• Has achieved APR Critical Guidance Recognition
• Allows up to 100% rPET usage
• Does not negatively impact the PET or polyolefin
recycle streams
PRODUCT BULLETIN
PROCESSING PARTICULARS
Capture is designed to work with 1-piece
HDPE and PP plug seal closures.

Recycled PET often exhibits yellowing or color variations due to degradation during the recycling process.
These additives are developed to withstand multiple recycling loops, helping the recycled material remain visually appealing even after several uses.
These additives should not negatively impact the recyclability of PET and should help maintain the integrity of the recycled material.
