– February 27, 2023 – Avient Corporation will exhibit and participate at the Plastics Recycling Conference next week, highlighting its polymer solutions that help make plastics more recyclable and improve recycled resin.   Avient Corporation provides specialized and sustainable material solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint  

Keeping in mind that color is a key element of a pleasing appearance, the recyclate’s intrinsic color-matching properties are more limited compared to virgin polymers. Moreover, coloring processes for dark recycled material can be challenging due to the need for high amounts of colorant to overcome the PCR base color.  We leverage our polymer expertise and decades of experience to offer value adding, innovative and circular material solutions for key industries such as consumer products, energy, healthcare, infrastructure and mobility.

Avient has experience formulating Cesa Laser Marking Additives that can work with a wide variety of polymers and processes, including injection molding, blow molding and extrusion. Avient has a track record of successfully collaborating with customers in the transportation industry and developing solutions for a wide variety of applications, materials and processes. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

When Avient proposed re-engineering the yoke with an alternative composite material, Bettcher was receptive, but needed evidence that a polymer solution would retain the reliable performance its customers demanded. While we are well aware of the industry and the application demands, Avient was able to provide the design support capabilities and materials expertise to help us optimize performance and streamline the development process.”

Our experience in formulating of light diffusion additives enables us to meet our customers’ goals for light diffusion and light transmission while providing more design and production flexibility than standard polymers. Information we may require includes: • Which material will be used to manufacture the lens? Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

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. Furthermore, process blockages and dosing interruptions may result from using such a poor quality feed material. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

CATEGORY DETAIL EC Number 215-175-0 CAS Number 1309-64-4 Name Subclass 1 Antimony Trioxide (ATO) Structural Formula CHEMICAL IDENTITY PROPERTY DETAIL Physical State Solid Form Powder Color White Odor Odorless Melting Point 656°C Boiling Point 1425°C Bulk Density 5.20 g/cm3 Water Solubility Slightly Soluble PHYSICAL/ CHEMICAL PROPERTIES HEALTH EFFECTS HUMAN HEALTH SAFETY ASSESSMENT 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. However, it can react with other materials in the soil and water to form other compounds. RISK MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATION ATO is a chemical with a unique and highly specialized ability to improve the safety of plastics and other organic materials by reducing flammability in a manner that maintains end-product performance characteristics.
