KEY CHARACTERISTICS
Formulated with bio-based resin and/or
10–50% filler from renewable plant sources,
Maxxam BIO formulations:
• Reduce product carbon footprint
• Achieve equivalent performance to standard
polyolefin formulations
• Provide good stiffness, durability, impact
resistance and UV stability
• Deliver good surface finish and are easy to color
• Enable customized performance characteristics
depending on application need
• Offer food contact compliance
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Maxxam BIO formulations are suitable for use across
many industries and applications where traditional
polyolefin materials are used, including:
• Transportation Interior Applications -
Decorative profiles, trunk side liners, pillars,
T-cup
• Industrial - Structural parts, furniture
• Consumer - Household goods, personal care
items, packaging, office supplies, food contact
applications
• Electrical and Electronic – Housings, buttons,
junction boxes

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
