Finally, the former Spartech businesses continued to experience integration challenges with our Designed Structures and Solutions (DSS) segment, falling just short of break-even in 2016. PolyOne's Designed Structures and Solutions segment utilizes a variety of polymers, specialty additives and processing technologies to produce a complete portfolio of sheet, custom rollstock and specialty film, laminate and acrylic solutions.

Films and sheet utilizing SiteCool technology can reduce the amount of IR energy passing into a structure by as much as 50%, while retaining light transmission levels and mechanical properties.

Color & Additives Animal Free & Food Contact Approved Film Additives

Available in small or large volume quantities, these colorants are suitable for a range of applications including insulation, film, tubing and profile shapes, wire and cable jacketing, and injection molded parts.

From anti-fog additives that allow clarity in films to low retention additives that repel water or other liquids, surface modification solutions can help to reduce costs, improve manufacturing efficiencies, and enhance overall product quality and value.

The ink film must reach cure temperature and remain at cure temperature long enough to drive off all the moisture in the image area.

HOW ALTERNATIVE POLYMERS COMPARE TO PA 6,6 PA 6 | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive, Industrial, Consumer & Sporting Goods Wider processing temperature range Better surface quality Better weathering resistance Shorter conditioning time—nearly half that of PA 6,6 Lower temperature resistance Slightly lower chemical resistance Higher water absorption Lower stiffness/wear resistance PK | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive, Consumer & Sporting Goods, Industrial, Electrical & Electronics Lower CO2 emissions in production Better hydrolysis and chemical resistance Comparable dimensional stability Inherently lubricious for reduced wear and friction Easier to mold Cost competitive Lower short- and long-term thermal performance Harder to color More limited process window PBT/PET | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Electrical & Electronics Lower water absorption Slightly higher rigidity/stiffness (for PBT) Better abrasion resistance Slightly better electric resistance Lower toughness properties Higher density Lower short- and long-term temperature resistance Lower hydrolysis resistance PP | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive, Consumer Goods, Lightweighting Applications Lower water absorption Slightly better chemical resistance Lower density Cost effective Fiber reinforced PP can achieve similar or better mechanical properties to PA 6,6 GF30 Reduced rigidity/stiffness Much lower abrasion resistance Lower electric resistance Reduced short- and long-term temperature resistance PC/PBT & PC/PET BLENDS | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive Interiors, Consumer Goods, Household Appliances Higher impact strength Good scratch resistance Good wear resistance Lower mechanical properties Higher brittleness Narrow processing temperature range PA 6,6/PET BLENDS | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive, Industrial, Appliance, Electrical & Electronics, Applications Where Low Water Absorption is Required Reduced water absorption—up to 40% Slightly higher mechanical properties in the conditioned state Slightly lower temperature resistance Slightly lower chemical resistance Narrow processing temperature range PA/PP BLENDS | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive Interiors, Electronics, Consumer & Sporting Goods Good adhesion to polyolefin-based TPEs Low permeability of water Good processability Lower density Lower temperature resistance Lower mechanical properties POST-INDUSTRIAL RECYCLED SOLUTIONS (PA 6,6/PA 6/PP) | POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS: Automotive Accessories, Industrial, Consumer & Sporting Goods Between 50-80% recycled content Good processability Cost effective Reduced chemical resistance Wider range of mechanical specifications Potential for slightly lower mechanical properties 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com Copyright © 2024, Avient Corporation.
