exceptional reliability and quality.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Multipurpose, multi-resin colorant concentrates
• Formulated with high quality, heavy metal-free
pigments
• Carrier system designed for compatibility
across different resin systems
• Samples available with quick turnaround in
small lots for customer evaluation
• Available in a wide range of stock and standard
colors*
• Low LDRs—typically 1–3%
• Low minimum order quantities for both stock
and non-stock colors

PRODUCT BULLETIN
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Omnicolor Multipurpose Colorants can be used for
injection molding, blow molding, or profile and
sheet extrusion processes.

Coloring polymers in any process gives a degree of freedom and flexibility that’s not possible with pre-colored polymers.
Assuming that the choice between solid and liquid colorants is a black and white decision
There’s actually also a third potential pitfall here: A processor who purchases one type of equipment (liquid-color dosing or solid-color feeders) may wrongly believe their operation cannot accommodate the other type of color technology.

Smartbatch™ FX for Paint Replacement
The replacement of paint on plastic parts with
molded-in color (MIC) has several benefits.
Since the color is incorporated into the plastic
matrix, it also prevents color peel-off and flaking.
Our
Avient Design engineering experts can support
as well with the computer aided simulation
of molded-in-color metallic parts to minimize
surface defects.

ONCOLOR™ IR SORTABLE BLACK COLORANT eliminates
carbon black to allow reclaimed black plastics, such as
those found in food trays, to be detected by automated
sorters and properly recycled.
SMARTBATCH™ COLOR AND ADDITIVE CONCENTRATES
are great UV weathering protection color concentrates
for solar power stations.
Polystrand™ tapes and laminates can be post-
formed and co-molded with mixed materials in
thermoforming and injection molding processes to
achieve part designs and cycle times that meet the most
demanding performance targets.
