PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Nylon (polyamide - PA) solutions from Avient include both prime Nymax™/Bergamid™ Polymer Formulations and
Nymax™ REC Recycled Nylon Formulations.
Based on nylon 6 (PA6) and nylon 66 (PA66) polymers, these materials
combine high temperature performance with exceptional strength and durability.
NYMAX/BERGAMID PRIME NYLON GRADES
The Nymax/Bergamid series of PA6 and PA66 polymers are
designed to meet critical performance requirements for
demanding applications.

CESA™ Light Additives
Light Stability
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Exposure to the sun, heat, and oxygen through
outdoor exposure causes the degradation of
the polymer, resulting in yellowing, loss of melt
strength, and loss of mechanical properties in most
resins.
One method is through the use
of stabilizers that react with radicals created from
UV exposure, inhibiting polymer degradation.
Many CESA Light products include
CESA Nox additives, which also aids in polymer
protection.

CESA™ Nox Additives
Stabilization
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Exposure to heat, shear and oxygen during
processing causes the creation of free radicals from
the polymer.
These free radicals rapidly react with
other polymer chains, propagating the degradation
of the polymer and resulting in yellowing, black
specks, loss of melt strength, and mechanical
properties in most resins.
CESA™ Nox additives
target the free radicals, terminating the oxidation
reactions and preserving the polymer properties
through one or more processing steps or cycles,
including recycling.

CESA™ Slip Additives
Lubrication
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Many polymer processing operations need lubrication
to improve the process flow and/or part.
They act as plasticizers to improve the
flow of the polymer through the process (extrusion,
injection molding, extrusion blow molding, etc),
reducing the heat and energy needed.
