Our composite panels are custom engineered
by varying core thicknesses to increase or
decrease stiffness; by varying core materials
(including end-grain balsa, foam or engineered
woods) to increase or decrease weight; by
varying fiber to modify the stiffness-to-weight
ratio; and by varying the base polymer to
increase or decrease strength

Avient Corporation will highlight Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents, which can be used to reduce weight in automotive applications such as door panels, at the Plastics in Automotive Engineering (PIAE) Conference 2024
This will also highlight Avient’s new Foaming Prediction Service, which helps predict the behavior and maximum weight reduction of foamed parts, reducing the need for physical trials and testing.
Avient does this by offering a multitude of solutions, including those that can enable greater use of recycled materials, such as its award-winning Color Prediction Service, and lightweighting solutions, such as Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents.

Colorant Chromatics™ PSU, PES and PPSU Masterbatches
Colors for High-Temperature Applications
Colorant Chromatics™ PSU/PES/PPSU colorants
are designed to color polysulfone (PSU),
polyethersulfone (PES), and polyphenylsulfone
(PPSU) resins used in high-temperature injection
molding and extrusion applications.
PSU, PES and PPSU resins offer excellent
resistance to heat and fire, and have exceptional
dimensional stability.
FEATURES AND COLORS
PSU, PES and PPSU masterbatches are manufactured
using 100% prime virgin resin.
