These bio-derived and
glass fiber-reinforced formulations utilize 16–47%
natural filler from renewable plant sources,
including corn, straw, and wheat.
Renewable,
plant-based raw materials, have been shown to
offer significantly lower product carbon footprint
values than typical petroleum-based feedstock.

Biopolymers may be manufactured from
renewable materials such as corn and sugar cane
and can be biodegradable, meaning they degrade
under biological—mainly microbial —conditions.
To streamline the process of biodegradable
resins without compromising performance
or manufacturability, Avient bioadditives
can help.
The pigments and ingredients contained in Avient’s
bio colorants have been tested in independent
laboratories who assessed the compliancy of those
materials according to standard EN 13432 for
content of heavy metals, and toxicity to plants.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-08/ColorMatrix Excelite Product Bulletin.pdf
Excelite additives are not subject to significant
thermal exposure in the manufacturing process, so
the formulations are optimized for decomposition
during the customer process.
With less impact on the manufacturing
process, more CFA can effectively be introduced.
EXCELITE VS POWDER
• Enables a greater level of density control, through
consistent distribution in the polymer
• Simplifies and optimizes resin compounding
capabilities (PVC dry blends)
• Enables greater control over foaming and expands
processing window when re-introducing regrind
• Clean and highly accurate dosing process, with
fewer of the health and safety concerns that can
become apparent with powder CFAs
EXCELITE VS PELLET
• Being significantly more concentrated, Excelite additive enables lower total cost to foam
• Can achieve lower density, less carrier influence
• Finer and tighter cell structure through better additive distribution
• Improved linear consistency of cell structure as ColorMatrix pumps continually meter output,
giving greater stability over material dosing
• Improved plant working capital as lower let down ratios means less material is consumed and
reduces inventory holdings
TECHNICAL SUPPORT
• Avient has a market leading service team which understands
foaming processes, we assist customers to deliver performance
and production efficiencies with Excelite™ technology
• Please contact your local Avient representative for additional
information on our line of foaming additives
