Colorant Chromatics™ Metallic Effect Pre-colored Sulfone Colorants
Brilliantly Sustainable Metallic Sulfone Colorants
Colorant Chromatics™ Metallic Sulfone Pre-colored Colorants are developed for ultra-high heat and high-performance applications requiring a brilliant metallic finish. These innovative colorants are optimal for creating parts in bright, metallic hues directly from the molding process, eliminating the need for secondary processing.
Key Features
- Metallic effects: Achieve stunning metallic finishes in gold, silver, and bronze directly during the molding process
- Sustainability: Offers a more sustainable alternative to traditional painting, with lower energy requirements, reduced weight, and lower VOC emissions
- High performance: Provides ultra-high-heat resistance suitable for demanding applications, including those requiring multiple sterilization cycles and heavy cleaning
Applications
These colorants are excellent for industries where both aesthetics and performance are critical, such as:
- Medical devices: Optimal for reusable devices that undergo rigorous sterilization.
- Automotive components: Enhances the visual appeal and durability of interior and exterior parts.
- Consumer electronics: Offers durable and attractive finishes for devices exposed to intensive use.
In a strategic partnership, Avient and BASF have collaborated to integrate these metallic-colored grades with Ultrason® high-performance polymers, enhancing both performance and sustainability for global markets.
