Silicone’s excellent resistance to staining, however, comes with some trade offs - limited design freedom, long lead times and supply chain challenges. Increase design freedom – Our material enables enhanced design freedom through overmold adhesion to common polycarbonate substrates. Increase speed to market – Avient TPEs have a shorter lead time than silicone and can be processed quickly on high speed injection molding equipment.
