SHANGHAI – October 31, 2024 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable materials solutions and services, today announced the expansion of its reSound™ REC Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) AF 7210 grades to Asia.

CASE STUDY: GLS™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS THE LOGICAL CHOICE FOR ACQUA PLOSEChalle nge Accepted. When closurelogic turned to Avient for material selection help, the team developed a GLS™ TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) based on a stable, low migration TPE with a lower processing temperature compared to competitive TPEs, thus resulting in even fewer volatiles. Lined with TPE, closurelogic caps have outstanding tightness for sealability of both one-way and refillable bottles, while maintaining good removal torque.
