Compounded antistatic polymers produce parts that repel dust and uphold a vehicle’s interior clean look, and they provide an alternative to laborious cleaning. Suppliers and OEMs looking for a broader color palette will also benefit from masterbatches. While most antistatic parts do not have good bonding surfaces for paint, masterbatches allow for the inclusion of colorants to achieve molded-in color without the need for paint. 

It offers a practical way to improve your product’s surface look and feel, adds the possibility for custom color and sensory effects, and works with most substrates. TPEs are available in a wide array of colors and special effects that will amplify their sensory qualities and contribute to brand identity and shelf appeal.

Long glass fiber composites start as continuous filaments of fiber, which we melt-impregnate with thermoplastic polymer in our pultrusion process to create a high performance bond. Additive technologies such as custom color, lubrication and UV performance enhancement are also available to customize your solution.  Colorable for product branding or quick identification

This technology addresses challenges associated with recycling incompatible polymers like polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) by forming a homogenous polymer mixture, increasing mechanical properties, and bridging the gap between virgin and recycled polymers. 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.
