To monitor progress against these goals, we track waste data from each site on a monthly basis. Beyond quantities of waste generated, this monthly data includes information on positive and negative influences that impact performance. Operation Clean Sweep companies greatly help to prevent plastics from making their way into the ocean, promoting safety, health and cleanliness for marine life.

Consumer products made with TPEs offer benefits that add both consumer appeal and safety benefits. Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging

Building upon our commitment to sustainable water management, Avient took significant strides in 2023 to enhance transparency and data accuracy across our global operations. While we have collected water data from our manufacturing facilities since 2012, increased water data accuracy allows us to better understand our water sources, withdrawal rates, and discharges. In line with our commitment to conserve biodiversity, Avient has developed a biodiversity risk assessment framework that draws upon data from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Biodiversity Risk Filter.

Specific drying temperatures and times can be found on the Technical Data Sheets for each individual product. If using a specialty overmolding grade, follow the coloring recommendations given on the individual product Technical Data Sheet.

If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear.  Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging

This single-ply tape can be layered to form multi-axial laminate sheets and rolls by stacking layers of tape in varying directions and applying heat and pressure. Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging Boosting rPET Quality and Safety in Packaging

This predictive simulation technology factors in conventional (isotropic) and advanced (anisotropic) modeling data from material characterizations, mold filling analysis, and finite element analysis (FEA). Based on static and dynamic data, the virtual simulations can more accurately predict where an injection molded plastic part may crack or break when exposed to physical loading forces or a sudden impact (crash simulation). Additionally, designers may access material data and models for a growing number of Avient’s fiber-reinforced solutions using Hexagon’s Digimat™- MX (Material Exchange) software platform.

This higher frequency range is required for faster data transfer, higher data capacity, and lower latency (i.e., data transmission times).
