Most of the new TPEs are designed based on the concept of matching the surface energy between the TPEs and the substrates. Figure 1 shows the surface energy match of various thermoplastic elastomers with rigid thermoplastics. These TPEs usually have good adhesion on substrates with similar surface energy.

Only naturally balanced runner systems (“H” pattern) are recommended. 3. Place wells at every 90° bend in the runner system. 3. Increase cooling time Fibers on Surface (Splay) Melt Temperature too low 1.

Drug Delivery Systems Surface Care Surface Protection

These antibacterial and antifungal additives reduce growth of bacteria, mold and fungus on the surface and through the thickness of the plastic part. ANTIMICROBIALS FOR PLASTICS Effective in reducing bacterial growth across a range of polymer resins Bacteria does not attach to surface of part molded with WithStand Bacteria attaches to surface of part molded without WithStand Side View Molded with antimicrobial additives Molded without antimicrobial additives

Avient’s chemically compatible Versaflex™ PKG thermoplastic elastomers provide a wide range of tactile finishes and surface textures and are REACH SVHC compliant. Ability to add surface texture – Our injection molded TPEs are easily processed in commonly used, complex molds. Our materials allow you to add surface texture by bead blasting or chemically texturing the mold.
