Styrene Block Copolymer (SBC) is a
TPE that combine the processing characteristic
of thermoplastics and physical properties of
vulcanized rubbers.
Since the
introduction of styrene block copolymer four
decades ago, newer molecules with varied
chemistry have been introduced to the market.
SBC
compound is thermoplastics and can be recycled,
which results in additional saving in processing
cost compared with thermset silicone.

Aliphatic polyketone, often referred to as just polyketone or PK, is a semi-crystalline engineering resin that is an alternating copolymer of carbon monoxide and ethylene with some propylene (1–10%).
Interestingly, perfectly alternating polyketone copolymer results in a highly crystalline material that is very difficult to process.
With PK, you can get engineered thermoplastic performance with an added benefit of a polyolefin carbon footprint.

The innovative hybrid product technology is developed to replace die-cast or machined metals to deliver both the look and weighted feel of metal in premium brand high-impact applications.
Moreover, molded-in colors eliminate the release of potentially hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOC) associated with painting.
Avient’s portfolio of Gravi-Tech materials combine the aesthetics of metals with the superior processability of polypropylene (PP), acrylic butadiene styrene (ABS), polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), and other thermoplastic materials.
