Other additives, such as Phosphoric Acid (which is typically used as a thermal stabilizer) can be used in conjunction with Joule RHB additive and may be dosed at the same point if process constraints dictate, but only when using a separate lance to that used for the reheat additive. For further advice on how to use ColorMatrix Joule fast reheat dispersion products, and for details of their regulatory status and any other queries, please contact your local ColorMatrix sales representative or visit our website at www.avient.com www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.

Because of their inherent dielectric properties, glass fiber reinforced composites have long been used in electrical transmission and distribution applications such as insulators, arresters and other pole line hardware. More recently, traditional wood and metal utility poles and cross arms are increasingly being replaced by polymer composites, typically made with glass reinforcements and produced using pultrusion or filament winding.

We collaborate across the value chain from suppliers to converters and brand owners to identify opportunities to help meet their sustainability goals.

Our colorants can be produced using a wide variety of specialty base resins from several major manufacturers and suppliers.

An enforced gap analysis of technical documentation may show that current plastic resin grades or masterbatches do not have adequate change control, and there are insufficient change agreements with suppliers

In recent years, Tier suppliers have proposed designs featuring colored textiles in locations typically filled with hard polymer surfaces.
