Cesa™ Fiber Additives
Light Stabilizers for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens
Non UV-stabilized fibers exposed to sunlight can
suffer color fading and molecular changes that
degrade their chemical and mechanical properties,
leading to fraying and breakages.
APPLICATIONS
Avient’s light stabilizers are suitable for PP, PET
and PA fibers used in a wide range of applications
including carpeting, upholstery, automotive textiles,
artificial turf, awnings, marquees, blinds, sunshades,
covers, tents, sun loungers and garden furniture.
They can be used
either alone or in combination.
