The most common use—coatings and plastics—accounts for more than 80 percent of global consumption. TiO2 is the most used in terms of volume of all pigments employed by the plastic industry.

Now the benefits of thermoplastic materials are available also for the applications traditionally produced from ceramics or thermoset plastic materials CREATING A SAFE AND ULTRA-CONNECTED SOCIETY WITH FUNCTIONAL PLASTICS That’s our purpose—plain and simple.

Design flexibility = fast customization: Plastic offers much greater design freedom than metal, enabling the company to quickly develop and produce variations of the seat securement part for different customers Injection molding = system cost savings: Compared to metal fabrication, which requires time-consuming secondary operations, injection molded plastics can be produced as a net-shape part in a single step, boosting productivity and lowering system costs.

When added to plastics, special effect pigments create a distinctive impression like pearlescence, sparkle or a metallic look. Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

In some cases, additives are required to achieve the desired marking quality by enabling the plastic to absorb laser energy and/or improve the laser marking contrast.

In addition to their use in standalone applications, TPEs can be overmolded onto a rigid plastic grip in an injection molding process to create a distinctive, cushioned feel without compromising the stiffness and strength of the underlying structure. When overmolded, GLS TPEs bond permanently and seamlessly to many different plastic substrates, including polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene- styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide (nylon) and polystyrene (PS).
