Cesa™ Anti-Block Slip LS is a range of additives for flexible packaging that ensures smooth and efficient production of low-temperature layers in polyolefin mono-material films.
It also helps convertors and brand owners by enabling the switch from multi-material to mono-material packaging, and enables convertors and brand owners to switch from difficult-to-recycle multi-material to a mono-material solution.
Enables the transition from complex, multi-material flexible packaging to a recyclable mono-material solution

TPEs offer excellent resealing, low levels of coring, and better manufacturing efficiency compared to traditional materials
Afterward, parts need to be washed for 2 to 3 hours to remove unreacted crosslinking materials, such as zinc or sulfur.
Versaflex HC grades give customers confidence that the materials will comply with regulatory requirements.

How one supplier optimized properties, processing with UV-stable materials
For these reasons, a material that can combine high productivity and lower production cost with elevated quality meets both OEM and supplier needs on multiple levels.
Further, Burdorf noted that Jäger has realized system cost benefits by collaborating with Avient and implementing an optimum materials solution.

The materials exhibited warpage, causing an uneven surface in a substantial number of parts produced.
Switching from two blended resins to a single material delivered several key benefits to the manufacturer, including:
Reduced drying time: The new material reduced drying time by 70 percent.

Design and materials are intrinsically connected in the best products.
Materials are the essential building blocks of all products.
Equal parts science and art, intrinsic design can transform challenges into change faster and more elegantly than if materials were an afterthought.

These formulations contain up to 100% recycled materials, such as nylon carpets, and can be used in applications such as automotive under-the-hood parts.
Expanding production of these grades to Istanbul, using locally sourced recycled content, means we can offer Turkish and Middle Eastern countries these REACH-compliant solutions while helping to reduce the environmental impact of transporting these materials,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing of Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.
By using recycled materials, these formulations can also offer lower Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) values than virgin nylon equivalents.
