A single unit designed to meet current and future liquid metering for a range of applications within the polymer industry. How can you make the most of color, from design through processing?

Optimizes tool design and production processes Technical information, design guides, processing information and more. Avient Design Makes Ideas Reality

Increased design flexibility Avoid Design Mistakes for Consumer Electronics Edgetek™ ET9600 material allowed surface mount technology (SMT) for an innovative 3D antenna design

Thermoplastic Elastomers | Color & Design In designing the housing for the BiowavePRO, Biowave had several objectives. This approach maintained the streamlined design while controlling costs.

Plus, designers planned to add a proprietary, integrated self-sharpening whetstone into each sheath. Designers selected a custom grade of Bergamid™ high performance polymer from PolyOne for the sheath. The sheath illustrates what can happen when great design intersects with our polymer expertise.”

Design, functionality, asthetics, performance needs and value addition have opened the rigid substrate selection from commodity plastics to various engineering thermoplastics and their alloys.

In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics. If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear. 

The annual event is Asia’s leading technology-oriented plastics and rubber trade fair dedicated to helping designers, brand owners, and manufacturers boost the performance, aesthetics, efficiency, and sustainability of their products. Solutions to help reduce carbon footprint by lightweighting using recycled materials in injection molded and extruded applications for automotive and consumer goods industries, such as Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents developed to reduce material consumption, part weight, and cycle times while maintaining excellent surface finish and eliminating sink marks, and can also serve as nucleating additives in direct gassing foam extrusion processes 

FEA allows for an evaluation of the performance of a design, process, and material combination. FEA is a powerful aid in the new product development process to validate and refine designs. It can help designers and engineers avoid costly detours and gain confidence in the quality of their process and application.
