This opens the door to a new way of thinking about automotive materials – more strength, less weight; less add on, more integrated.

The manufacturer began working with Avient to find a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) solution to meet its dual requirements. 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. Avient gathered detailed data from this customer’s production facility in Mexico and helped them calculate and compare the costs of the two solutions.

Avient worked with a progressive customer who designed floating solar panels that float on large bodies of water, and require very demanding weather resistance in harsh environments. Fixed in idle waters in Taiwan in this case, Avient’s integrated colorant and anti-UV solution is expected to provide 25 years of weathering resistant performance.
