Thermoplastic Elastomers for Overmolding Applications The growth of the thermoplastic elastomers continues over the last three decades and the projections are very optimistic3. As an example, in order to bond to engineering thermoplastic, the continuous phase in a TPV has to be modified significantly. Polypropylene which is normally the continuous phase in a TPV does not lend itself for functional modifications needed to meet the adhesion requirements for a wide variety of engineering thermoplastics that are being used in the consumer market.

Examples include: • Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high- performance materials that require less plastic • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation • Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater, improve the recyclability of materials and advance a circular economy • Composite solutions to support accelerated growth of 5G / fiber-optic infrastructure investment as the world demands greater and faster connectivity Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste. Operational Excellence Empowers us to respond to the voice of the customer with relentless continuous improvement. We will do so though our investments and focus on sustainable solutions for high-growth markets, including healthcare, consumer, packaging and composites/5G.

Homepage // News Center // PolyOne Unveils New Bio-Derived Thermoplastic Elastomers for Overmolding CLEVELAND – October 28, 2019 – PolyOne today announced the launch of reSound™ OM (overmolding) thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), the latest addition to its sustainable solutions portfolio.

Our expanding portfolio of offerings includes colorants, advanced composites, functional additives, engineered materials, and Dyneema®, the world's strongest fiber™. Continuing operations Continuing operations

Thermoplastic composites include base resins, but are combined with a structural filler such as glass, wood, carbon or polymer fibers to enhance strength, rigidity and structure. In wire and cable, thermoplastics and composites serve to protect by providing electrical insulation, flame resistance, durability, water resistance, water swelling and color coding to engineered fibers, yarn products, wire coatings and connectors. We also have what we believe is the broadest composite platform of solutions, which include a full range of products from long glass and carbon fiber technology to thermoset and thermoplastic composites.

Avient engineered materials that combined the heat transfer and cooling capabilities of metals with the design freedom, weight reduction and cost advantages of conventional thermoplastics. By replacing metal with engineered thermal composites, Kruunutekniikka has been able to drive growth in the emerging solid-state LED lighting market with a solution that is innovative, sought after, cost effective and consistent with the company’s ongoing effort to facilitate sustainable practices.
