– PolyOne today announced that Montana’s WO Design relies on high-performance GLS™ Dynaflex™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to manufacture WO|Bone, a unique dog toy that supports the Ethiopia- based charity, Bring Love In. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with PolyOne as we consider adding new toys, with the goal of funding 20,000 lunches.” Sandy Wagner Marketing Communications Manager PolyOne GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers +1 815-385-8500 sandy.wagner@avient.com

Most fluoropolymers, other than PTFE and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), can be melt processed using conventional thermoplastic extrusion or molding techniques. Fluoropolymers have high melting points and corresponding high processing temperatures and continuous use temperatures, depending on the specific product. At the lower end, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) has a typical continuous use temperature of 300°F (150°C) and typically reaches 450°F (232°C) during processing3.
