Colorant Chromatics™ Evoluscend™ non-PFAS mold release additive for high-temperature polymers integrates directly into plastic materials and migrates to the surface during molding to facilitate a smooth demolding experience. This process can help reduce cycle times and boost productivity by reducing demolding times and protecting the mold and the manufactured plastic parts while utilizing an alternative to PFAS-based additives. Limiting Damage: By acting as a lubricant, Evoluscend™ additive can help limit mold damage, supporting the longevity and quality of the mold and the plastic products

Avient will highlight these colorants at its booth today for the start of Chinaplas 2024, the world’s leading plastics and rubber fair in Asia.   Avient will be exhibiting its broad portfolio of advanced technologies for the plastics industry, including its new OnColor durable orange nylon colorants for high-voltage EV connectors at Chinaplas 2024 from April 23-26, in Hall 8.2 Booth F31 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center of Hongqiao, Shanghai. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Ensure Sustainable Solutions: Plastic packaging is one of the 20th century’s most important inventions: it’s highly recyclable, consumes less water and energy than paper and other materials, and is a safe way to deliver products while preserving their quality. Yet it's also an irrefutable fact that plastic packaging is a major cause of global littering and pollution. We offer products that are specially designed to increase plastic recycling capabilities.

The growing adoption of plastics with PCR content by Asian automakers in the past decade, especially for interiors, has also created a significant rise in demand for PCR-based TPE solutions capable of delivering excellent overmolding results on higher-performing polymers, such as PP,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing of Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. Our new reSound REC AF 7210 TPE series responds to this trend and addresses upcoming regulatory changes in export markets, such as the European Union, where a newly proposed ELV directive requires high recycle contents for plastic components.

The quality of the laser plastic welding process hinges on how transmissive or absorptive the components are to laser energy. Compared with ultrasonic and vibration welding, plastic laser welding provides an array of benefits, such as unmatched production efficiency and consistent, high-quality results,” said Matt Mitchell, director of global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Collaborating to Reduce Plastic Ocean Waste Avient collaborates with Hager Group and Plastic Bank to help reduce ocean-bound plastic waste 

Facing strong competition from all-plastic garden sprayers, a leading garden equipment manufacturer decided to create a new, high-end line of sprayers featuring enhanced quality, durability and aesthetics. The new products have been very well received by consumers, and have allowed the company to neutralize the competitive threat from all-plastic sprayers. High-end product line = competitive advantage: With Avient’s OnFlex-S TPE, developers successfully designed and produced a new, high-end product line that compares favorably with all-plastic sprayers in terms of appearance, performance and durability.
