Edgetek™ PKE High Impact Formulations The Edgetek™ PKE High Impact (HI) series consists of specialty engineered, impact modified polyketone (PK) thermoplastics. Formulated to deliver high performance in chemical, fuel contact, and high moisture environments, these thermoplastics are useful in applications found in the industrial, electrical/electronics, transportation and powersports industries.

CASE STUDY: GLS™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS WHAT RECOIL? So HIVIZ product development engineers aimed their sights on recoil reduction technology for a major high-end rifle manufacturer, and it was game on. The new material, a GLS™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) from Avient, met the rigorous needs of the high-end rifle manufacturer, and then some.

THE SOLUTION Gravi-Tech™ density-modified formulations are unique, high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-based alternatives to lead and other traditional metals. They are formulated using select metallic fillers and engineered thermoplastic resins to achieve the specific gravity of different metals, while providing the design flexibility and processing ease of conventional thermoplastics.

These include high-temperature, engineering and recycled polymers. UL94 Compliance Appliances are part of the electrical products requiring UL94 compliance to be deemed safe for certain markets. We offer a wide range of color concentrates for different polymer grades, from standard to engineering polymers, that fulfill the vertical burning (V-0; V-1; V-2) and horizontal burning (HB) tests.
