These materials outperform nylon 6 and flexible PVC with better flexibility, lower moisture absorption, better insulation properties, and they are RoHS compliant. Unlike flexible PVC, which loses flexibility over time, Avient materials do not fail over the MCCB’s service life (approximately 10 years). Easier to install – Our TPEs are more flexible than nylon and flexible PVC, which makes the MCCB easier to install, service and inspect.

Fully approved for USP Class VI compliance, they are available in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and high consistency silicone rubber (HCR) options.

These pigments are integrated into the Zodiac Aquarius Ink Management System (IMS), which provides color formulas to match with Pantone® standard colors as well as brand colors for approved printers.

The company tried several TPE grades, hoping to find a material that would eliminate the adhesion problem while providing comparable softness to silicone. The manufacturer worked with Avient to formulate a custom Versaflex™ TPE that featured a low durometer with excellent resistance to adhesion (sticking). Armed with a new specialty TPE solution, the medical manufacturer handled gasket adhesion with a material that outperformed that not only silicone, but also conventional TPEs.
