ColorMatrix™ Optica™ Global PRT Toner Dispersions
Handling and Usage
ColorMatrix Optica Global PRT Red and Blue
dispersion toners are intended for use primarily
in PET bottle polymer production processes
and, although they are suitable for all polyester
manufacturing processes, are used successfully
throughout the world on all types of PET
production technologies.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Consistent coloring and improved
homogenization with the polymer for more
efficient processing and waste reduction
• Opaque PSU/PES/PPSU masterbatches
available with shorter lead times in a range
of readily available standard colors
• Minimum order quantities as low as 5kg (10lbs)
for improved inventory control
• Robust colorant formulations mean zero
disruption to existing molding processes,
allowing manufacturers to bring products
to market faster and without investing in
new machinery

HOW GLS TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN AUTOMOTIVE FASTENERS AND CLIPS
• Low compression set – coupled with good
stress relaxation, our automotive TPEs are
designed to maintain a good seal over time and
reduce noise generated by vibration
• High temperature performance – Avient
automotive TPEs provide good sealing
performance in temperatures up to
100°C/212°F
• Bonding performance - strong chemical bond
to polypropylene, polyethylene,
and polyamide
• Process flexibility - grades can be both
injection molded and extruded
• Easy to color - can be colored at the machine
• Reduced production steps - some grades do
not require pre-drying
• Low VOC/FOG - OnFlex HT™ has been externally
tested to VDA 278 and is proven to help satisfy
vehicle interior air quality (VIAQ) regulatory
requirements
• Single source supply – we can streamline your
supply chain with the ability to provide polymer
colorants, engineered thermoplastics, and
thermoplastic elastomers from a single source
• Global support - we provide production,
technical, and commercial support in locations
convenient to your operations, including North
America, Europe, and Asia

Consumer
It is very unlikely that consumers would be exposed to ATO in its concentrated
form because it is only sold for industrial use to make polymers and other products
and is not sold directly to consumers.
