THE SOLUTION Avient worked with Elausa to develop a thermoplastic solution to suit their requirements and Therma-Tech™ Thermally Conductive Formulations were chosen as a potential fit. Switching materials from a metal to a polymer carries large and potentially costly risks in terms of both performance and production, so Avient Design was consulted to help alleviate these concerns. Equipped with the necessary simulation software and a broad database of Avient’s Specialty Engineered Materials, Avient Design is able to evaluate a part’s performance in a given Avient thermoplastic.

In each case, the physical property retention of Avient’s PK-based formulations was superior to that of PA6 or PA66. However, Avient has overcome this challenge and achieved vibrant colors like any other resin. What is the lead time for these materials?

THE SOLUTION Leveraging decades of experience creating customized composite materials for archery bow limbs and other high-performance applications, the engineers at Avient worked closely with WillowWood’s special products team to identify a solution. And, the fiberglass solution did not yield the “push-off” that would prevent the foot from meeting K2 level coding requirements. © 2020, All Rights Reserved Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012
