It offers excellent surface engineering properties such as low wear, reduced friction, high lubricity, and no squeak. Avient and the manufacturer conducted a series of molding trials to establish proper part performance, and the teams also coordinated sales, engineering and technical support in tandem. Thermoplastic Elastomers: GLS™ Versaflex™

For packaging tier suppliers and converters, extrusion blow molding is a popular process due to low tool and die cost, fast production rates and ability to mold complex parts. Goods such as detergent containers, beverage bottles, and household cleaners must withstand dents and dings and be lightweight for easier shipment.     Our dedicated packaging team of engineers, field specialists, designers and color technologists are here to engage at any point in the packaging development lifecycle, to:

Composite Overmolding Part Optimization Optimizing Part Design with Thermoplastic Composite Injection Overmolding: How localized reinforcement can reduce weight and improve performance Specialty Engineered Materials - Product Selection Guide

Our solutions enable faster, safer, and more reliable connections in antennas, lenses, screws, and other radio frequency parts. Material selection can be a balancing act between over-engineering or underperformance. More Carbon Fiber Composites Strong, lightweight alternative for metal and wood applications More Laser Marking Made Simple Learn how you can achieve permanent results with laser marking additives.

Engineered with third-generation Dyneema® fiber technology, these groundbreaking unidirectional (UD) materials set a new standard for ballistic performance and weight reduction, enhancing protection in hard armor applications such as inserts, helmets, and vehicle armor.  Our expanding portfolio of offerings includes colorants, advanced composites, functional additives, engineered materials, and Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™.

Long fiber thermoplastics (LFTs) offer benefits to design engineers seeking a material that provides exceptional strength, yet requires lightweight properties. When working with Avient, our materials and technical experts act as an extension to your design and engineering teams, supporting your projects from start to finish. CAE also helps us design for possible warp and deflection of the finished part.

Engineered Polymer Formulations | Healthcare , Lightweighting , Metal Replacement , Regulatory Issues , Sustainability Designs traditionally have required lead parts produced by machining or casting.  Finally, the material gave the OEM's designers greater geometric flexibility so that they could shield areas more effectively than with machined parts.
