PRODUCT BULLETIN ColorMatrix™ Liquid Dispersion for Extrusion Blow Molding Avient’s ColorMatrix™ LCX liquid color products are the latest advancement in technology to deliver stable pigment dispersions for the extrusion blow molding (EBM) process.

They are effective for cleaning both extrusion and injection molding equipment and have the added benefit of being recyclable. DESCRIPTION CHARACTERISTICS PROCESSES CC10120195WE Multi-purpose purge concentrate that is miscible with all resin systems Performance up to 280°C Extrusion, molding, injection and film processes 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

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.

OnColor™ Recovered Black is designed for use in both injection molding and extrusion processing, and can be a good choice for a range of applications: • Industrial parts • Transportation, including structural or underhood components • Pipes and fittings • Building & construction applications • Thick sheet extrusions KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Reduction of plastic materials in disposals or landfills; promotes responsible care • Cost-effective option for non-critical color applications • Custom color critical applications available 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.

MECHANICAL STRENGTH – BURST TESTING Anthranilamide AAnchor 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com EASY INTEGRATION ColorMatrix AAnchor is a liquid dispersion additive easily incorporated into the PET stream during injection molding or extrusion using ColorMatrix standard liquid metering equipment. It is compatible with PET bottles formed from an extrusion blow-molded or stretch blow-molded process.

The FlexCart M.I. is designed to meet the needs of extrusion and similar continuous processes requiring additive and colorant delivery directly into a molten polymer stream. To operate in an extrusion process, the mixing capabilities may need to be enhanced and the FlexCart M.I. can be combined with a Cavity Transfer Mixer (CTM).

They are suitable for injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding. Extrusion-specific concentrates are available for most common packaging resins, including PP, PE, PS, PET, and PLA.
