Furthermore, Avient’s technical team helped achieve
a surface finish that would allow for a strong bond
with an adhesive backing and recommended suitable
adhesives to achieve optimal bonding of the materials.
Ultimately, Avient customized a GLS™ wet grip TPE
that outmaneuvered traditional materials—delivering
dynamic hydrophobic performance, translucent
aesthetics, non-abrasive comfort grip, and excellent
UV protection.
Charging ahead, the
company has continued to leverage Avient’s technology
and technical expertise to pursue the commercialization
of additional anti-skid products for marine and military
vessels, and non-slip products for the pool, bath, and
walkway markets.

speed.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-01/Versaflex CE TPEs for 5G Application Bulletin.pdf
These 5G transparent
TPEs combine the excellent physical properties,
aesthetics and UV resistance qualities of traditional
TPEs with lower dielectric constant (Dk) and
dissipation factor (Df) performance, resulting in
an advanced material solution with less signal
degradation for next-generation devices.
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.
