Avient GLS thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material specialists identified a current TPE within the OnFlex™ S HF, non-halogenated, flame retardant portfolio that could be slightly modified to meet the application’s requirements. Avient determined the TPE would perform satisfactorily at an 85 Shore A hardness level. High-flow properties of OnFlex S HF TPE allow the gaskets to be overmolded in multi-cavity tools (up to 12 cavities per tool).

Lightweight, Strong, & Durable Polystrand™ Thermoplastic Composite Sandwich Panels provided lightweight, durability, and insulation requirements for camper Durable, lightweight and impact-resistant engineered composite panels for marine applications

Using phase barriers made of Avient’s OnFlex™ S HF, HF 7001, and Synprene or Synprene™ RT thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) will help you deliver on that promise. Easier to install – Our TPEs are more flexible than nylon and flexible PVC, which makes the MCCB easier to install, service and inspect. Low moisture absorption – While nylon is water- absorbent and loses dielectric performance in the presence of excessive water, our TPEs exhibit low moisture absorption and maintain the necessary dielectric properties over the MCCB’s service life.
