Homepage // News Center // Medtec China 2024: Avient Announces Healthcare TPU Manufacturing Expansion Avient Announces Healthcare TPU Manufacturing Expansion and Showcases Specialty and Sustainable Materials for Healthcare at Medtec China 2024 SHANGHAI – September 25, 2024 – Avient Corporation, a leading provider of specialized and sustainable materials solutions and services, will exhibit its extensive portfolio of medical-grade materials and solutions for healthcare applications at Medtec China 2024, including the announcement of newly expanded manufacturing for its NEU™ Custom Capabilities and NEUSoft™ Thermoplastics Polyurethane (TPU) solution for catheter applications in China.

Colorants & Additives for Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) Wire & Cable Applications Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) has excellent mechanical performance, chemical and abrasion resistance. When adding color to TPU materials for use in wire and cable applications, it is important to maintain the original TPU performance characteristics. Avient colorants for TPU applications are specifically designed to reach high quality standards.

Homepage // News Center // Independent Testing Proves PolyOne Shock-Absorbing TPEs Protect Phone Cases from Impact Better Than TPUs Both iPhone cases used TPU on the exterior, while the control case used TPU on the interior and the second case used shock absorbing TPEs on the interior. In addition, the tests showed that a case made with Versaflex XP TPE dropped from 14 feet performs nearly the same as a TPU case dropped from 10 feet.
