https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-01/Cesa Withstand SX Low Haze Product Bulletin.pdf
The patented formula of Cesa WithStand SX is
especially suited for those products that use recycled
resin, as it will not cause opacity or hazing as
traditional antimicrobials often do.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Patented next-gen formulation that can preserve
visual clarity and aesthetics in applications using
recycled content
• Reduces bacterial, mold, and fungal growth
on the surface and through the thickness of the
plastic part
• Helps reduce odor, staining, discoloration,
and loss of mechanical properties
• Available for various processes including
extrusion, injection molding, blow molding,
rotational molding, and thermoforming
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
These antimicrobial additives are well-suited for
clear polycarbonate or plexiglass applications using
recycled resin including:
• Electronics
• Packaging
• Consumer goods
• Protective shields and sneeze guards
• Plexiglass windows or panels
• Clear phone or tablet cases
• Modular office construction
• Point-of-purchase screens
• Touchscreen information kiosks
• Transportation infotainment screens

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/Avient Climate Change Scenario Analysis Summary 2022.pdf
By 2030, Avient will enable 100% of our products manufactured for packaging applications to be recyclable or reusable to advance the circular economy, for which
approximately 90% of Avient’s products met this criteria in 2020.
In support of advancing the circular economy, our design expertise and material science, helps our customers
reduce material usage, enable recyclability, increase recycle content, and improve physical performance
We enable reduced carbon
footprint technologies, improved recyclability, increased recycle content, and bio-derived solutions

INCREASED
RECYCLE
CONTENT
Benefits of using rePrize include:
• Increased product target IV
• Improved melt flow consistency
• Increased recycle content
• Reduced rejects and scrap
• Improved low temperature performance
rePrize can be combined with other liquid
additives and can be used to optimize sheet
manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle,
contributing towards improved sustainability
and reduced costs.
FEATURE BENEFIT

ColorMatrix™ rePrize is a PET compatible formulated liquid dispersion, designed to
increase the polymer chain length via reactive extrusion.
This results in an increase
in both the polymer intrinsic and melt viscosity. rePrize is suited to applications in:
• PET monolayer sheet
• PET multilayered sheet
• PET foamed sheet
rePrize can be used to optimise sheet manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle, contributing towards improved
sustainability and reduced costs

Good clarity and recyclability
Ultimate UV dosing is highly consistent offering
excellent part clarity with a superior aesthetic.
It has no negative effect on recyclability, physical
performance characteristics or color of the
recycled material.
In some situations the Ultimate UV
range can vastly improve both the processing
and mechanical properties of packaging
incorporating recycled material.
