The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. The Avient team assessed the application’s technical and operational requirements, and recommended GLS Versalloy™ XL- 9045-1 alloy in 45 Shore A durometer, an FDA-compliant medical TPV grade designed for overmolding onto PP. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs.

They also add color, soft touch and improved grip. Customizable for color and haptics (touch and feel) Browse and download our literature to learn more about Avient solutions and services.
