Collaborating with PolyOne enabled Akboru Elektrik to make a transition from metal to polymer that increased the expected useful lifetime of the lights by 200 percent, supporting the company’s goals to reduce part weight and improve manufacturing and logistics efficiency. PolyOne’s Therma-Tech thermally conductive materials provided Akboru Elektrik with the solution to oxidation problems on metal heat sinks. Photo Caption: Switching from metal to heat sinks molded with Therma-Tech thermally conductive polymers enabled Akboru Elektrik to increase the expected useful lifetime of pool lighting by 200%.

This enables customers to replace metal with plastic and take advantage of benefits like sustainability through lightweighting, design freedom, and easier processing.”   To exemplify the improved accuracy of FEA capabilities, Avient tested and analyzed the performance of an injection-molded automotive connector rod, a traditional metal component, using isotropic and anisotropic material mapping. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint  

a leading manufacturer of food processing equipment, on converting the support yoke of its Quantum™ Motor from metal to plastic. Opportunities for metal replacement are all around us,” noted Eric Wollan, general manager of PlastiComp at Avient. This project is an excellent example of how the strength and toughness of Complēt long fiber composites offer a light weight solution and an exceptional substitute for metals across many industries.
