CONTOUR
Where possible, contouring the products’
exterior form, as shown in Figure 5, can help to
eliminate pooling of fluids.

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoset composites combine high molecular weight resins with glass or carbon fibers.
The resin has a lower tensile modulus than the reinforcement and will fracture at lower loads in this direction.
Fiber volume is the ratio of fiber to resin in a composite structure.

Performance is on par with standard PET formulations using virgin resin.
Levels of post-consumer resin content vary within the offerings, allowing end products to meet different performance and sustainability requirements.
This is the first offering in a planned larger long-fiber composite portfolio based on recycled resin.

L’Oréal recently expressed the need for a tool to help simplify the process of developing color with recycled resin.
The PCR Color Prediction Service is Avient’s breakthrough digital tool for polyolefins and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins, launched in June 2022.
Having identified optimized colorants for the packaging of the Redken line worldwide, Avient’s PCR Color Prediction Service helped L’Oréal simplify overall color development with recycled resin.

OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants have received APR Meets Preferred Guidance for packaging applications using HDPE resin.
With the recognition, OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants are preferred for high-density polyethylene (HDPE) resin in black and dark colors, according to the APR Design® Guide for Plastics Recyclability.
In addition, testing is underway to support an application for MPG recognition for the same colorants for polypropylene resin (PP).
