A global consumer electronics brand used a Versaflex™ CE TPE to replace leather for soft touch, durable grip Read how technical expertise and broad TPE portfolio shortened the development timeline and delivered a durable performance Custom GLS™ TPE enhances user comfort and durability in recoil pad

Requirements: Biocompatability, durability, overmolding TPE 3. Requirements: Self lubricating for reduced friction and improved durability Trilliant™ LubriOne™ Internally Lubricated Formulations 10. Requirements: Soft dampening to protect the vial and other components Versaflex™ VDT TPEs 12.

Working together with GOBIE designers, PolyOne helped develop a recyclable, dishwasher-safe, and FDA-compliant TPE material that avoids leaching into the bottle’s contents. GOBIE overmolds GLS Versaflex™ TPE material on the bottle’s patented FlexFlo™ squeeze grip, non-slip base and finger-loop to deliver a comfortable non-slip grip, attractive aesthetics and a strong bond for durability.

The professionals at Jäger and Avient identified OnFlex-S TPE with UV stabilization as the material that would best fulfill cost and performance goals for this application. Because it exhibits a higher flow rate than other SBC-based TPEs, OnFlex-S TPE reduces cycle times during injection molding, a feature that satisfies productivity objectives set by Jäger. High-performance material = consumer satisfaction: Because OnFlex-S contains superior properties in the areas of tactile quality, abrasion resistance, toughness and UV stabilization, the map case mats exhibit greater durability, more gripping action, and less fading and cracking from sun exposure.
