This not
only caused a high scrap rate, but also led to frequent
interruptions in the automated process so that the mold
and machine could be cleaned.
In addition to a lower material cost
than silicone, the Avient solution offered cycle time
efficiencies, lower part weight due to its lower specific
gravity, and reduced scrap rates.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2021-04/versalloy-medical-tubing-case-study.pdf
In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow,
the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity
and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the
competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce
system costs.
These savings resulted from lower specific
gravity of the Avient material (0.88 compared to 0.95)
and a 50% reduction in scrap rate.

Main advantages of liquid color systems include:
• Excellent statistical distribution for consistently high quality products
• Shot-to-shot and batch-to-batch consistency
• Single heat history
• Minimal wastage due to high level dosing accuracy and product recovery rates
• Highly concentrated formulations with capability of very low addition rates
• Reduced inventory and storage requirements
CHARACTERISTICS OF
HIGH PERFORMANCE
STABLE LIQUID FORMULATIONS
Under storage
• Remains stable
• Solid-like at low shear
• No sedimentation
During dosing
• Exceeds yield stress
• Liquid-like behavior
• Flows easily
After dispensing
• Self-levelling
• Rebuilds its structure
INSPIRATION AND INSIGHT
When developing a brand new color, consulting with
your color provider early in the decision process
can prove invaluable in gaining insight into which
formulation will be most effective and can open up
new ideas and opportunities for new colors, color
effects, polymer options or finishes that you may not
be familiar with.
Product packaging is recyclable with
recovery rates of up to 99%.
Avient liquid color and additives in combination with state-of-the-art dosing equipment
deliver extremely high dosing accuracy, reduced material usage and product recovery rates
of 99+%.
