Design Matters
When designing TPE parts, strive to keep the part wall thicknesses as uniform as possible and radius all sharp corners.
On the other hand, TPEs are most commonly processed using in-line, single-screw injection equipment that has been routinely used in the plastics industry for decades.

It is designed for convertors
to add to preforms to allow for higher levels of
rPET, reducing risk from off-taste and improving
the sustainability of PET bottles.
Note to converters: This product is compatible
solely with transparent bottles produced in a two-
stage injection stretch blow molding process.
They are metered
into the PET stream just above the feed
throat of the injection molding machine
or extruder, using a Avient supplied
ColorMatrix liquid metering system.

ColorMatrix™ Excelite™ IM
Chemical Foaming Additives for Injection Molding
ColorMatrix™ Excelite™ IM formulations for injection
molding feature fully endothermic chemical
foaming agents which, when under thermal
decomposition, cause gas to evolve.
EASE OF PROCESSING
Avient’s proprietary ColorMatrix dosing equipment
makes Excelite IM additives suitable for use in all
types of injection molding processes.
TARGET APPLICATIONS
Excelite IM chemical foaming additives (CFAs) are
engineered for a wide range of injection molded
polymers: olefins, PVC, polystyrene, PC/ABS and
high heat applications.

They are suitable for injection molding,
extrusion, and blow molding.
Additional advantages
include shorter injection molding cycle times and
improved part dimensional stability.
