Spraying a coating on a film’s surface requires an investment in capital equipment and use of a secondary process in a film manufacturing line. In contrast, a specialty additive concentrate can be added at the film extrusion machine, in concentrations formulated to support manufacturing of different types of films. Collaborating with an experienced supplier able to offer a wide variety of these additive concentrates, globally, can help film manufacturers play their part in limiting food waste and keeping consumers happy.

Because the material has never been combined or processed in this precise way, the “recipe” becomes a trade secret that the manufacturer saves for future use cases. Because of this, scrap materials during the manufacturing process can be reused. Because producing TPEs is a very controlled and precise chemical and manufacturing process, you can make TPEs for different levels of risk and medical grades.

Its site in Knowsley UK employs ~140 associates in manufacturing, technology, regulatory, marketing and admin with approximately 60% of sales supplying affiliates in Europe, India and China for onward sale to customers locally. Avient does not manufacture or sell totally finished articles to be sold as consumer goods. In sourcing its own raw materials and in distributing products manufactured by others, Avient is required to meet the specifications prescribed by its customers.

They are designed to provide manufacturing efficiency, enhance performance by providing additional cable features, and meet end user specifications. Processing Aids Cesa™ Process Additives Improves manufacturing efficiency: increase output, reduce die build-up. Helps to minimize manufacturing investment while optimizing cross-linking benefits e.g., better thermal resistance.

It is the responsibility of the medical device manufacturer and the person placing the medical device on the market to ensure compliance of the medical device with all applicable laws and regulations, including the suitability of all raw materials and components used for its manufacture.

These materials provide consistent conductivity at any location on the pipette tip, as well as from manufacturing run to manufacturing run. Working together, we can help you arrive at an optimal solution with speed and accuracy, while helping to lower product development and manufacturing costs.

With faster material lead times, manufacturers of 5th generation (5G) antennas can qualify designs faster and meet the demands of rapidly deploying 5G infrastructures. Small Part Manufacturing Capabilities – Thermoplastics can be molded into smaller parts, whereas the manufacturing process of traditionally used materials limits this capability.

Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule Reheat Additive Proprietary IR Absorber Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule reheat additive is a proprietary IR absorber manufactured and marketed by ColorMatrix worldwide for use in PET resin formulations suitable for carbonated soft drinks and beverage applications. Occasionally, technicians from the equipment manufacturers are used to establish the ‘entitlement’ performance of a particular machine and most major manufacturers have technical service teams to help with this activity.
