There are a variety of Avient TPEs designed to have excellent adhesion to a number of rigid plastic substrates for overmolding. PC, ABS and PC/ABS overmolding materials are available in water-clear, natural, thin wall overmolding, and high performance grades.

To bring USee™ from concept to completion, Avient’s team of industrial designers and engineers combined their expertise in materials science, manufacturing and design to overcome performance and production challenges. Avient’s design team assisted with the design, process analysis and production of the injection-molded plastic USee™ device, which includes a copolyester frame, medical-grade polycarbonate lenses, and acetal for the dials and gears.

One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers. The plastic mass is then shaped into filaments, spun, and texturized into an already-dyed yarn.

Cesa™ Anti-Block Slip LS Additives for low-temperature sealing layers in flexible polyolefin packaging FOOD PACKAGING IN A CHANGING MARKET In many food contact applications, flexible plastic packaging is replacing rigid packaging for varied reasons; it has lightweight characteristics, is easy to customize in any shape, and has a favorable carbon footprint. More and more convertors and brand owners working with flexible film products are seeking materials and solutions that permit them to work with mono-material compositions for their packaging options, as mono-materials are easier to recycle and therefore contribute to a circular economy over time. WHAT IT DOES Cesa™ Anti-Block Slip LS is a range of additives for flexible polyolefin packaging that helps convertors and brand owners switch from multi-material to mono-material packaging.
