The USee™ is a simple yet effective
plastic self-refraction device that
enables low-cost vision correction
in under-resourced communities.
This TPE offers the same resistance to staining as
silicone, but with increased design freedom and
supply chain flexibility at reduced cost.
These materials
may offer comparable or improved performance
compared to traditional polymers, and provide
cost benefits as well.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Improves bonding performance of epoxy
adhesives in installation of pultruded parts
• Eliminates need for surface preparation with
abrasion or removal of peel ply layer prior to
application of adhesives
• Reduces overall system costs by saving time
and labor on secondary processes
• Enables replacement of mechanical fasteners
with epoxy adhesives for improved fatigue
performance and reduced weight
• Simplifies manufacturing processes and
reduces part complexity

These dispersions provide
a cost efficient and non-destructive permanent
marking on silicone surfaces without affecting the
dimensional stability or mechanical performance of
the silicone.

PRACTICES
EXPANDING
COLORANT OPTIONS
Avoid limiting yourself to either
solid or liquid forms, and focus
on the requirements of the end
application instead
• Widen your materials and
applications possibilities
• Achieve the desired
effect for each part
• Optimize productivity
and system costs by
matching the right colorant
type to the project
ADDING SPECIAL EFFECTS
Further differentiate and add value to your products
• Examples include: metallic, pearlescent, chrome look,
edge glow, sparkle/glitter, neon/fluorescent look,
woodgrain/stone/camouflage
SELECTING + SIZING
COLORANT EQUIPMENT
Both liquid and solid
colorants can be used in
the same production facility
• Use the right colorant
to significantly impact
production and offer
improvements in terms
of efficiency and quality
