The focus for this study was to develop thermoplastic elastomer compounds that would overmold onto substrates made from Nylon (PA), Polycarbonate (PC), Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), and PC/ABS alloys

But the manufacturing process for the decorative trim molded from ABS was time consuming, requiring as many as eight steps to complete.
Cost reduction: Overall improvement in material cost performance versus painted ABS.

Yes, achieving this target will support Avient's achievement of Abs 3.
Though this goal is most closely related to our products, this goal necessitates that any
waste produced via the manufacturing process also be recycle, and so is indirectly tied
to our Abs 3 waste goal.

Specialized chemistries enable TPEs to adhere to many different plastic substrates, including polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide, and polystyrene, for a seamless and permanent bond.
For the manufacturer of a garden sprayer, a TPE increased usability of the ABS handle by contributing anti-slip performance even when the part is wet.
