It is well known that detection and sorting of black or dark packaging in material recovery facilities is a complex issue affecting the packaging and recycling industries extensively. Automatic sorting equipment in waste facilities relies on the reflectance of NIR wavelengths to identify polymers and properly sort packaging waste by plastic material. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

There are a variety of Avient TPEs designed to have excellent adhesion to a number of rigid plastic substrates for overmolding. PC, ABS and PC/ABS overmolding materials are available in water-clear, natural, thin wall overmolding, and high performance grades.

Fiber-Line™ packing yarns are well suited for applications including braided compression packing, packing rings, and packing materials for pumps and valves. Plastic, wood, or metal reels are also available.

Plastic, wood, or metal reels are also available. Material can be "rolled flat" to mitigate false twist

Cesa™ Laser Additives allow manufacturers to optimize the use of laser technology to create markings or assemble plastic parts.   Challenges and solutions for materials used in EV charging stations

One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers. The plastic mass is then shaped into filaments, spun, and texturized into an already-dyed yarn.
