Additives and Colorants
for PP-R and PP-RCT Pipe Systems
Polypropylene-random grades (PP-R and PP-
RCT) are increasingly used for hot and cold water
supply pipe systems in civil and public buildings.
ANTIOXIDANTS FOR METAL/PP-R AND
PP-RCT SYSTEMS
Plastic systems in contact with metal inserts
can also be subject to oxidization.
Avient also offers additive and color concentrates for
other polymer grades and pipe system applications.

Trilliant™ HC Electrically Conductive Formulations
for Precision Performance Pipette Tips
A critical design consideration for pipette tips is
the accurate measurement of finite amounts of
liquid.
In automated systems, pipette tips are often
made of conductive polymer materials, enabling
the tip to sense the liquid and accurately measure
the correct amount of liquid being transferred.

KEY BENEFITS
• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than
traditional materials such as wood, drywall,
and framed wall assemblies, offering a
lightweight yet durable solution for easier
transport and installation, while maintaining
structural integrity
• Durability: Resistant to rot, moisture,
chemicals, UV, and corrosion, ensuring long-
lasting performance
• Efficiency: Consolidated structural panel
reduces labor and assembly time, maintaining
structural integrity throughout the installation
process
• Versatility: Can replace gypsum and drywall
in wall construction, offering strong adhesive
bonding properties and paintable surfaces
• Material Consolidation: Integrates flame
retardant properties and eliminates the
need for additional sheets or coatings for
fireproofing, simplifying the building process
• Highly Customizable: Avient offers a wide
range of custom size configurations and panel
options, allowing builders to meet specific
project needs
• Sustainability: FR technology is not
halogenated or phosphorus-based, and is made
with benign ingredients at low concentrations,
making it an environmentally friendly option
