A cautionary orange color is often used in EVs to distinguish high-voltage power connectors and cables from other parts. This is where Avient’s orange nylon colorants can help. Its portfolio of OnColor™ polymer colorants was developed to improve the heat and long-term color stability of cautionary orange polymers for high-voltage EV connectors, offering the following benefits: • Long-term fading resistance in thermal aging tests at up to 130°C for 1,000 hours, • No migration, excellent processing stability • Lower corrosion risk vs. typical comparable colorants • No impact on flame retardancy and limited adverse effects on essential mechanical characteristics, including flexural and impact strength Avient’s orange nylon colorants are available in several validated RAL, Pantone, and JPMA orange shades for compounding, injection molding, and extrusion.

Colorant Dispersions From silicone to rubber and much more, explore our wide range of colorant dispersions. An overview of our broad portfolio of color and additive silicone dispersions.

This rigid vinyl formulation is designed to provide low maintenance performance and long-lasting color in outdoor settings. The recently launched Resilience™ LS material was chosen for its long-term color hold, UV stability and thin-wall 5VA flame retardance, more than meeting technical requirements for the Nuvi light. We’re able to push the service envelope with in-house capabilities supporting design and color selection to drive successful commercialization of their products.”

These advanced technologies, including soft-touch materials as well as colorants and special effects, enable customers to design new features that boost consumer appeal and reduce manufacturing complexity. Paint-free metallic finish: OnColor™ FX Metal colorants – providing visually appealing metallic finishes without the need for a secondary painting process Premium surfaces: OnColor™ FX Granite colorants – creating a premium fabric look on surfaces that utilize molded-in texture
