THE SOLUTION
In the development of the Caplex PRO-002, Humotech
sought a material solution that would provide high
torque, flexibility, and durability for key components of
the foot.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-01/Versaflex CE TPEs for 5G Application Bulletin.pdf
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Enables excellent permittivity and low-loss
performance for high-speed signal transmission
and connectivity
• Delivers lower Dk and Df performance
compared to standard TPEs
• Provides excellent physical properties,
UV resistance and aesthetics
INDUSTRIES & APPLICATIONS
Versaflex CE 3140 TPEs are formulated for use in
phone cases to minimize signal loss and enable
high-speed connectively for 5G devices to deliver
a seamless experience for consumers.

Lower processing temperature
was another key for this application—this saves energy
and makes start ups or conversions faster, generating
less waste.
