THE SOLUTION Avient was asked to suggest a suitable TPE for this application. For this manufacturer, another appealing aspect of working with this material was Avient’s dedicated TPE production line in Spain, which is used solely to manufacture TPEs for overmolding applications. Abrasion resistance = excellent appearance to uphold corporate image: The Avient material resists scratching and scraping that commonly occur when sprayers are dragged along the ground or left out in all types of weather.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Inherently low COF • Excellent wear resistance • Excellent chemical resistance • Low moisture uptake • Excellent dimensional stability • Cost-effective • Eco-conscious alternative to PA66, PA6 and POM MARKETS & APPLICATIONS These materials are ideal for use in applications requiring lubricated solutions, as the formulations have improved wear, chemical, and hydrolysis resistance over nylons (PA6 or PA66). Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
