Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility

By increasing the use of scrap or recycled PET material generated during extrusion of products such as BOPET film, PET sheet and fiber, you can avoid complex and expensive solid state processing and improve your sustainability profile.

CUSTOM TPE RESOLVES A STICKY SITUATION FOR CONTACT LENS CONTAINER CASE STUDY: VERSAFLEX™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. Because low durometer (softer) material is a requirement for this application, the manufacturer considered a switch to a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).

CASE STUDY: GLS™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS THE LOGICAL CHOICE FOR ACQUA PLOSECha lle ng e A cc ep te d. When closurelogic turned to Avient for material selection help, the team developed a GLS™ TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) based on a stable, low migration TPE with a lower processing temperature compared to competitive TPEs, thus resulting in even fewer volatiles.

INDUSTRY BULLETIN Cesa™ Laser Marking Additives for the Transportation Industry Many thermoplastic automotive parts require a permanent marking, and laser marking is among the most efficient means to do so. Cesa Laser Marking Additives can be used with thermoplastics commonly used in vehicles including: • PP • PC/ABS • Polyamide • Polyacetal (POM) WHY SELECT LASER MARKING?

Examples include: • Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports • Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint • Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.
