Beyond strength, Dyneema® SB301 has the additional advantage of being made from bio-based Dyneema® fiber, which enables a carbon footprint up to 90% lower than generic high modulus polyethylene (HMPE) fiber. Now available for use in law enforcement vests for the US market, Dyneema® SB301 material is manufactured in Greenville, North Carolina, in compliance with the Berry Amendment, with additional markets to follow.

These solutions include chemically-resistant polymer formulations and pre-tested polymer colorants and functional additives.   Introduced in 2021, the Mevopur portfolio also includes custom color and additive concentrates and ready-to-use formulations made with bio-based polyolefins, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, or styrenic polymers.

Providing safe and sustainable products that downstream customers want is crucial,” said Say-Eng Lee, vice president and general manager, Color & Additives Asia. Avient’s Taoyuan site supports customers in Greater China, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia with fiber colorant and additive solutions for apparel, home, and industrial textiles. 

Cesa™ Unify™ A4R Polyolefin Compatibilizer: submitted in collaboration with Avient’s customer PreZero, a recycler, and its converter, Jelenia Plast, this innovative compatibilizer additive was developed jointly to boost the use of recycled polyolefins, showcasing how a value chain collaboration can lead to success. In 2023, Avient’s Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Color Prediction Service and Cesa™ Nox A4R Additives for Recycling were both featured in the Product Technology Innovation of the Year category, with the Color Prediction Service winning the overall award.   

In addition to viewing live printing demonstrations throughout the show, attendees will also be able to explore PolyOne’s comprehensive portfolio of screen printing inks, from water-based and silicone to plastisol and non-PVC plastisol ink technologies from Wilflex™, Rutland™, Zodiac™, Union Ink™ and Printop™ brands, all in one space. In addition, our new high solids water-based system has excellent opacity to allow printers to reduce the number of screens, ink deposit, and flash units required.”

The adhesive properties of thermoplastics enable the construction of sandwich panels and reinforcement of materials such as wood and metal through thermal lamination without requiring additional adhesives. The existing solution — reinforcing the latch area with a steel plate — added vehicle weight and involved additional manufacturing processes, increasing time and cost.
