Caption: Introducing Avient’s new Range of ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ Dairy Protection Additives With Low Total Inorganic and TiO2 Content               [To download a high-resolution image, please click here: FOR MEDIA USE ONLY] In PET packaging, specialized light blocking additives are regularly used to stop visible-light induced contents from degrading under commercially relevant storage conditions, helping to prolong the shelf life of dairy packaged products such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) milk. Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses FOR MEDIA USE ONLY: To download a high-resolution image, pleas click here: FOR MEDIA USE ONLY

OnCap™ Dry Silane Additives: Anti-oxidant agents, copper deactivators, and UV resistance agents that are flexible enough to be used with cross-linkable and standard thermoplastics on the same production line OnCap™ Nucleating Foaming Agent: Used with polyethylene compounds for manufacturing coaxial cables using a gas injection foaming process

Based on color science and proven by scientific data, the digital tool can decrease complexity where different grades of PCR are used and is able to help optimize the ratio of virgin resin to PCR, in order to achieve the best acceptable rendering.  Rebuild intrinsic viscosity and increase your use of recycled PET Discover our digital color prediction service for polyolefins and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins that uses sophisticated technology to illustrate the color possibilities or limitations of certain types of PCR.

The active substance used is non-hydroscopic, does not migrate within the polymer, and resists leaching under typical conditions. Along with desirable dispersion properties, these additives are easily used in extrusion applications. Long-term solution to avert rats, when used in cable jacketing or protective corrugated pipe

Protecting the PCR in this way can help achieve a higher quality level of recyclate and better end-use products. Rebuild intrinsic viscosity and increase your use of recycled PET. Learn more about Avient's portfolio for recycled resins used in electrical and electronic applications.

This insight can then be used to make design and engineering decisions.                                                                       Take, for instance, using FEA for a metal-to-plastic conversion. If you are used to designing in metals, you might be surprised when a polymer’s technical data sheet does not translate into part performance you anticipated.

Formulation of a custom Gravi-Tech™ density modified material to balance size and weight, using FDA and NSF certifiable ingredients.  Worked with the mold builder on how to build the prototype mold to produce prototypes that Rada could use with focus groups to get true consumer feedback.  The larger handle suited their target market of older individuals making it safer and easier to use. 

A common cause of these life-threatening accidents: using ordinary spoons and cups to dose liquid medicines. During development and prototyping, the engineers used an SBS-type elastomer for this critical component – but they hadn’t settled on materials for mass production. Andwin Scientific’s patented solution improves dosing accuracy, allows the end-user to use every drop of medication and reduces the chance for an accidental spill.
