Engineered Polymer Services Reinforced polymer materials are increasingly being used for structural applications because they allow manufacturers to replace traditional metal components with lighter-weight plastics. This is where enhanced virtual simulation capabilities can help, providing added value, driving innovation, supporting differentiation, and boosting confidence in structural polymer designs.

Sustainable polymers are typically processed with bio-based or recycled materials. Many polymers can be formulated with varying levels of these raw materials to achieve sustainability goals. With the current state of recycling streams, polymers formulated with recycled raw materials often don’t perform as well as traditional polymers.

PolyOne is the first company in the polymer colorants industry to offer OK compost HOME certification for a full range of color concentrates compatible with bio-degradable polymers.  Available in a full palette of color choices, these colorants do not compromise the organic decomposition of the polymers they enhance.   About PolyOne PolyOne Corporation, with 2015 revenues of $3.4 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

This latest addition to the Additives for Recycling (A4R) portfolio of solutions helps bring incompatible polymers, such as PP and PE, together by forming them into a homogenous polymer mixture that increases mechanical properties based on polymer modification and will be exhibited at the upcoming Fakuma International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing. When added to the recycled mixed polymers, Cesa Unify A4R addresses the common material degradation that occurs during the recycling process. It accomplishes this by increasing stiffness and mechanical strength, thereby bringing the material's properties closer to those of the virgin polymer.
