They offer comparable performance to virgin nylon grades, including high strength, durability, impact resistance, and weather resistance. Expanding production of these grades to Istanbul, using locally sourced recycled content, means we can offer Turkish and Middle Eastern countries these REACH-compliant solutions while helping to reduce the environmental impact of transporting these materials,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing of Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Testing under ASTM D3389 proved that this new material delivers 40 percent better abrasion resistance than a leading competitor’s product, as well as incumbent GLS nylon overmolding grades. Available in translucent and black formulations, this new overmolding TPE grade can be custom colored to meet aesthetic and branding needs.

With these new grades, we effectively help to lower our customers’ scrap rates and material usage while allowing them to achieve a premium quality end product.” Plenstarä Vinyl Grades: designed for plenum applications and engineered to meet performance needs for telecommunication cables

With some grades matching the actual density of lead (11 gm/cm3), but at a lighter weight, manufacturers see the benefits of a more sustainable solution that also offers increased design freedom and excellent chemical resistance. Explore a technical data sheet for one Trilliant XR grade

Depending on your application’s performance needs, we can develop custom Stat-Tech TPE grades to provide anti-static properties, dissipation, conduction, and EMI/RFI shielding. Food contact compliance grades are available

Avient’s team recommended the use of overmolding (two-shot injection molding) to integrate the boot with the saw housing, and trialed several products before customizing a grade from its portfolio. The TPE grade surpassed the performance of the previous material and allowed the manufacturer to introduce a more efficient production process.
