These blends create parts that can withstand higher temperatures than standard PEEK, with better post-processing shrinkage control and improved colorability.
This higher Tg frees manufacturers to design parts that can withstand greater operating temperatures and high-temperature sterilization without warping.
In addition, compared to PEEK, the materials can be processed at lower temperatures to help manufacturers save energy during injection molding.

HIVIZ found that when purchasing a firearm, consumers
are looking for cutting-edge technology and comfort in
gear that stands the test of time.
On one hand, soft materials can reduce shoulder
impact, but it’s tough to find a material that provides
plenty of comfort while also resisting material
breakdown.
By
incorporating Avient materials into this recoil pad,
the firearms manufacturer is now confident that the
product will stand up to the elements, and deliver
cost savings for its consumers

Without a consistently flat surface, the manufacturer encountered a variety of issues involving both the form and function of the part, leading to the high number of rejected parts.
All told, these improvements contributed to more than $100,000 annually in savings to the manufacturer’s bottom line.
