COLORANTS & ADDITIVES
FOR HEALTHCARE
Essential polymer solutions
for critical healthcare applications
WHEN MATERIAL EXPERTISE IS
CRITICAL
AESTHETIC APPEAL
Regulatory compliant and
approved masterbatch colors
use custom polymer colorants
to achieve any shade
SPECIAL EFFECTS
Enhance your brand and stand
apart with pearlescent, metallic,
iridescent, fluorescent or
thermo-chromatic effects
SOLID TO LIQUID
SOLUTIONS
Choose from a full range of
available color solutions,
from liquid color to solid
product forms
ANTIMICROBIALS
Efficacy performance and
regulatory requirements are
met in a wide range of resins
compatible with Withstand™
antimicrobial technology
SURFACE ENERGY
MODIFICATION
Additive technologies such as
low retention, hydrophobic,
lubricious, light diffusion, or
anti-stat provide desired surface
manipulation
Materials used for today’s medical devices, parts and pharmaceutical packaging contribute significantly to
performance and, in turn, to a patient’s health and well-being.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-01/Glasforms Dowel Bar Application Overview.pdf
Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) dowel bars
offer advantages over traditional steel or epoxy-
coated steel bars:
• Electromagnetic transparency: ideal for high-
speed toll roads to prevent interference
• Corrosion resistance: the GFRP material
will not rust or corrode in salt or alkaline
environments
• Light weight: less than one-third the weight
of steel
• Does not bond to concrete: eliminates
the need for sleeves or grease to allow for
expansion and contraction
Glasforms™ composite dowel bars are tested and
approved to meet the following requirements:
• ASTM 1356 Glass Transition Temperature
• ASTM D570 Water Absorption
• ASTM 2344 Short Beam Strength
• ASTM 7617 Transverse Shear Strength
