reSound™ REC Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers can help brand owners create sustainable end-user products, with formulations utilizing up to 83% recycled content for consumer and transportation industries.
Complēt™ Long Fiber Reinforced Structural Thermoplastics are injection molded composites with structural properties, able to replace metal and lightweight parts.
Andrew Donovan, Avient Technology Group Lead, will discuss recycled content thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) for automotive interiors at the Circular Economy Summit on Wednesday, November 8, from 11:50 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Palacio de Iturbide, room 3.

POMMERLOCH, Luxembourg – June 17, 2020 – Today, PolyOne announced it is adding production of both post-industrial recycled nylon grades (Nymax™ PIR) and bio-based thermoplastic elastomers (reSound™ OM) in Europe.
reSound™ OM (overmolding) thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) utilize between 40 and 50 percent bio-renewable content derived from sugarcane, and offer hardness levels and performance comparable to standard TPEs.
Consisting of four overmolding grades compatible with rigid polypropylene and one suited to ABS, all grades are formulated for durability, property retention, and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs.

The design team reached out to long-term supplier Avient GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers to help develop a customized solution.
They selected a TPE-based impact modifier that could be used at a loading level five percentage points below the current material while still meeting all of the performance requirements, including higher stiffness.
