Composite Overmolding Part Optimization Optimizing Part Design with Thermoplastic Composite Injection Overmolding: How localized reinforcement can reduce weight and improve performance Novel Thermoplastic Elastomers For Universal Overmolding on Dissimilar Thermoplastics - White Paper

CLEVELAND – March 28, 2022 – Avient today announced a new reSound™ REC thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) formulation for use in certain food-contact applications. reSound REC recycled-content grades are a part of Avient’s reSound TPE portfolio, which includes both recycled-content and bio-based formulations. This FDA evaluation should boost OEM and consumer confidence in incorporating recycled materials into products that face stringent regulatory controls,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.

Benefits of using engineered thermoplastics over aluminum include: • Significant cost and weight reduction • Excellent strength-to-weight ratios that are equal to or better than non-ferrous metals • Increased design freedom with the ability to mold in components and features YOUR CUSTOMERS EMBODY A SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE. WHEN EVERY OUNCE COUNTS LIGHTWEIGHTING Looking for ways to make your gear both attractive and more functional? Soft-touch thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) overmolded onto a lightweight paddleshaft made of Avient’s advanced composite materials can help add to the experience and avoid annoyances such as blisters.

CLEVELAND – May 25, 2022 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions and services, today announced nine new reSound™ BIO thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) formulated with bio-renewable content from plants. Brand owners continue to seek ways to be more environmentally responsible and these new bio-polymers were developed to help them achieve those goals,” said Matt Mitchell, director, global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. reSound BIO formulations are a part of Avient’s broader reSound TPE portfolio, which includes both recycled-content and bio-based formulations.

Independent testing indicates that Geon HC materials for medical device housings offer major advantages in stress-cracking performance compared to many engineering thermoplastic alternatives. The PolyOne team works collaboratively with medical device manufacturers, offering a variety of support services, including part and mold design, manufacturing, agency approval, and other services to minimize the time and help manage the risks involved in bringing a new medical device to the market.
