Virtual, computer-aided modelling is a critical tool to help predict part performance, streamline design, expedite prototyping and improve manufacturing efficiencies. Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialised and sustainable material solutions and services, has invested in testing equipment, personnel, and software to help its customers gain insight into its unique material solutions and how they perform. The case study shows that by utilising the 3D suite simulation and comparing to real-world testing, Avient is equipped to more accurately interpret the data to help solve its customers’ toughest application challenges

This helps to reduce added compressive loads or pressures on the plastic. This helps to reduce the ring stress around the insert. Figure 12 is one example of gussets used to help reduce warp on long flat faces by adding strength to the wall, preventing it from buckling or curling in on itself.

The materials, parts, polymers, chemicals and other components of the things we use are all designed to re-enter the ecosystem that helped produce them. Each point on the circular continuum helped support and rebuild the system. Climate Change As more scientific reports continue to warn of the urgent and impending effects of climate change, implementation of circular economics can be a powerful step towards helping to solve the world’s climate crisis.

The low toxicity of the gases which are emitted, and the reduced smoke density created when these materials burn, helps people to escape burning environments and also limits damage to property Highly flame retardant—helps to prevent a fire, or limit the damage if one starts • Non-halogenated—in the case of a fire, there are no acid gas emissions which can damage equipment and buildings • Low smoke—in the event of fire, people can locate escape routes, and fire fighters can quickly find the source of the fire • Low toxicity—in the event of a fire, people are not overcome by toxic fumes • Low dripping—no flaming droplets which can further propagate the fire or cause injury • Low emission of corrosive gases when burned—avoids potential damage to electrical components and equipment, and improves human safety MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS The ECCOH XL 8001 is a flame retardant material for thermoset cable insulation.

Specialty Engineered Materials Wire & Cable Avient is here to help you consistently meet your flame retardant wire & cable product specification challenges head on. When you need consistency in processability or to meet your flame test performance requirements, we can help get you there.

Protecting PCR from degradation in this way can help achieve higher quality levels of recyclate and better end-use products and improve the quality of the overall recycling stream due to its long term stabilizing effect. Cesa Nox A4R is formulated to help: • Brand owners who need to maximize their PCR usage up to 100% to achieve sustainability and recyclability targets • Recyclers involved with flake or pellets dealing with multiple processing defects • Convertors of bottles, film, and sheet who need to maintain high-quality levels of PCR Performance enhancement antioxidants such as Cesa Nox A4R are valuable for many stakeholders within the circular economy, and indeed anyone seeking to achieve high-quality levels in their recyclate while operating with ever-increasing quantities of PCR.

They may also help to reduce odor or discoloration in certain applications. Avient technology centers across the globe offer regulatory support and product stewardship expertise to help qualify products.

Colorant Chromatics PSU, PES and PPSU colorants are designed specifically for use in these resins to help boost color consistency and streamline product development for increased speed to market. A range of standard colors also helps molders and extruders manage inventory and working capital.
