Our long fiber products are produced using a pultrusion process in which continuous tows of fiber are pulled through an impregnation die (to introduce polymer and additive solutions) and then chopped to length (typically 12mm) in a pelletizer.   In contrast, short fiber reinforced solutions are produced by introducing pre-chopped fibers (typically 1mm or less) into an extruder where the fibers are mixed with polymer and other additives.  In addition to a gain in toughness performance LFTs also boost stiffness and strength as well.

Caption: Explore the possibilities for polymers, colorants, additives, and services with Avient at Plastimagen 2022 in Mexico City. Sustainable portfolio of polymer solutions: Colorants, additives, and specialty formulations from Avient are categorized into eight ways that facilitate sustainable outcomes. Solutions include bio-polymers, eco-conscious materials, sustainable infrastructure materials, additives to improve recycling, and more.

We’re excited to further enhance our value to customers in Mexico through additional initiatives such as technical training sessions and product design support in 2016 and beyond.” Additional services and support include: In addition to exhibiting at Plastimagen 2016 next week (booth #1243), PolyOne Distribution will also conduct a Technical Seminar for Plastics Professionals on April 27 in Monterrey, Mexico.

PolyOne currently produces color and additive concentrates and engineered polymer solutions at the Pune facility. PolyOne opened a new facility in Pune in 2014, initially focused on the production of colorant and additive concentrates to serve end markets such as transportation, electronics & electrical, healthcare, wire & cable, and packaging.  With the most recent addition of TPE production, PolyOne enables manufacturers to source all of their specialty polymer requirements from a single domestic source.

MANNHEIM, Germany – At the VDI Plastics in Automotive Engineering congress this week, PolyOne is introducing Smartbatch™ Fabric FX color and additive concentrate. In addition, fabric graining and color can be tailored to meet designers’ recommendations.  Smartbatch Fabric FX offers greater design flexibility, and creates attractive, ready-to-use parts that are easier to clean than textile-covered applications,” said Christoph Palm, vice president, general manager, Color and Additives EMEA & India for PolyOne.

MANNHEIM, Germany – April 3, 2019 – PolyOne will display its colorant and additive solutions for the automotive industry at this week’s Plastics in Automotive Engineering (PIAE) Conference in Mannheim, Germany. In addition to new colors, the company will present solutions to support design and efficient manufacturing of electric vehicles (EVs). Vehicle designers want to establish and distinguish their EV brands with exciting new colors that reflect consumers’ environmental priorities, and we’re responding to this trend with stylish options,” explained Gary Fielding, global director of marketing, Color & Additives at PolyOne.  

In addition, this unique technology increases production efficiency by eliminating the coextrusion process used to manufacture striped catheters, as well as reducing material usage and scrap rates. NEU View formulations for cardiovascular and intravascular catheters are application-specific, incorporating medical-grade polymers, additives, color, and healthcare-centric manufacturing practices. PolyOne is exhibiting NEU View and additional advanced healthcare solutions this week at MD&M West in booth #3213.
