They also provide designers with increased flexibility and excellent aesthetics, including a wide range of colors and metallic effects. The PolyOne team works collaboratively with medical device manufacturers, offering a variety of support services, including part and mold design, manufacturing, agency approval, and other services to minimize the time and help manage the risks involved in bringing a new medical device to the market.

Although PVC is one option, this manufacturer needed a colorable, drop-in replacement for PC/ABS. After fully understanding all of the requirements, Avient’s technology team began to formulate an easy- to-mold, durable and aesthetically pleasing specialty polymer that provided processing flexibility and wouldn’t require retooling. The results showed the Avient material outperformed typical FR PC/ABS and had an added bonus: a UL yellow card V0 flammability rating for all colors and some thicknesses.* Avient also used its custom color matching capabilities to provide pre-colored material that simplified molding, while the material’s wide processing window helped accommodate a variety of molding environments. * V0 @ 1.5 and 3.0mm FR PC/ABS failed 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 120% 140% Virex TB Clorox Broad Spectrum CaviCide SaniCloth Plus wipes FR PC/ABS failed FR PC/ABS failed FR PC/ABS failed FR PC / ABS (1.0% Strain) FR PC / ABS (1.5% Strain) Trilliant HC (1.0% strain) Trilliant HC (1.5% strain) FR PC/ABS failed 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 120% 140% Virex TB Clorox Broad Spectrum CaviCide SaniCloth Plus wipes FR PC/ABS failed FR PC/ABS failed FR PC/ABS failed FR PC / ABS (1.0% Strain) FR PC / ABS (1.5% Strain) Trilliant HC (1.0% strain) Trilliant HC (1.5% strain) TENSILE STRENGTH RETENTION AFTER 7 DAYS EXPOSURE Both materials were tested according to ASTM D543 for 7 days.

Polymer science, industry-leading expertise with colors and additives, and our in-house color design service make us a powerful collaborator during bottle design, manufacturing, and product marketing. With our color and design support, your bottle can get noticed quickly. ACHIEVING BOTTLE OPTIMIZATION Avient can support every type of bottle blow- molding application.

Colorants and Additives for Spin-Dyeing These include black colorants developed for the coloration of polyamide and polyester yarns with specific undertones or where ultraviolet (UV) protection may be required. High black pigment loadings are also available to offer an efficient coloration package with deeper black options for higher-end textile applications such as automotive upholstery.  

Coloring polymers in any process gives a degree of freedom and flexibility that’s not possible with pre-colored polymers. Assuming that the choice between solid and liquid colorants is a black and white decision There’s actually also a third potential pitfall here: A processor who purchases one type of equipment (liquid-color dosing or solid-color feeders) may wrongly believe their operation cannot accommodate the other type of color technology.

Due to the commingled nature of the recycled stream for PCR raw material, the application will typically need to be a darker color such as black or dark gray Black is the easiest color to achieve consistently  Color at the press and pre-colored solutions are possible

The activation changes the molecular structure of these additives, causing a color change that provides the vivid contrast of laser marking. The mark can be white or dark in color. Avient has experience formulating Cesa Laser Marking Additives that can work with a wide variety of polymers and processes, including injection molding, blow molding and extrusion.
