CLEVELAND – October 31, 2018 – At MD&M Minneapolis today, PolyOne Corporation announced that Trilliant™ HC material outperforms FR PC/ABS after exposure to harsh disinfectants, according to tensile strength stress tests performed by an independent A2LA-accredited lab.
Testing results show that Trilliant HC 2020 retains higher tensile strength than common FR PC/ABS materials after seven-day exposure to typical disinfectants.
Developed as a drop-in replacement for FR PC/ABS, this innovative Trilliant HC formulation was recently used successfully by a medical device OEM seeking to improve resistance to cracking and brittleness for its housings.

Specific Versaflex OM grades have been specially formulated to bond to PC, ABS,
nylon 6/6, PC/ABS, and PPO.
The Versollan™ OM series are TPU alloys specifically
designed for thin-wall overmolding (both insert and two-shot molding) onto PC, ABS, and
PC/ABS substrates.

RIB DESIGN GUIDELINES
The minimum distance ribs should be spaced is
three times the nominal wall thickness (3W).
Solvent
Solvents soften surfaces of plastic (plastic
must be soluble)—best for amorphous or
low crystalline plastics, such as ABS, acrylic,
cellulosic, PC, PS, PPO, and vinyls.
