THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER FOR OVERMOLDING ATTRACTIVE, PRACTICAL HANDGRIPS ONTO ABS RESIN © 2021, All Rights Reserved Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012 To learn more about OnFlex-S™ TPEs, contact Avient at +1.844.4AVIENT (1.844.428.4368) or visit avient.com THE CHALLENGE Facing strong competition from all-plastic garden sprayers, a leading garden equipment manufacturer decided to create a new, high-end line of sprayers featuring enhanced quality, durability and aesthetics. The new products have been very well received by consumers, and have allowed the company to address the competitive threat from all-plastic sprayers High-end product line = competitive advantage: With Avient’s OnFlex-S TPE, developers successfully designed and produced a new, high-end product line that compares favorably with all-plastic sprayers in terms of appearance, performance and durability

While commodity plastics can typically maintain performance only up to 100°C, and engineering plastics do the same up to 120°C, a high-performance thermoplastic can withstand continuous use temperatures of 230°C while also maintaining low temperature impact. Automotive: Demand for plastics to handle increasing temperatures due to the proliferation of electronics in engine compartments and tighter spaces. Most high-heat plastics are hygroscopic, so careful drying is needed to avoid potential processing issues.

Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives for automotive interiors Plastics can attract dust particles, creating an unattractive smudgy film on their surface. Plastic parts in the passenger compartment develop electric charges as people get in and out of the vehicle and air circulates through the ventilating/air conditioning system. They bind themselves to the plastic in a three dimensional network so they do not contribute to VOC emissions.

Bio-polymers are already used with success in different plastic products, notably in packaging, but to be used in healthcare applications, they need to be evaluated to the relevant protocols to support regulatory compliance of the end article. Avient provides pre-tested color and additive concentrates based on bio-polymers to minimize the risk of non-compliance and support a more sustainable profile for plastic products used in the healthcare industry. Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

PLASTIC PALLET MANUFACTURER N . A M E R I C A & A S I A • Eliminate voids in plastic that create quality issues • Reduce high scrap rates due to sink marks • Improve low strength-to-weight ratio due to voids • Reduce long cycle times • Run more fractional melt / low melt flow resins • Improved cell structure and physical properties • Removed sink marks to reduce scrap rates • Improved gas retention when used with N2 physical foam • Reduced short shots for lower scrap rates • Improved melt flow and created a more controllable foaming process • Provided greater ability to process low melt flow resins Excelite™ IM Chemical Foaming Additives KEY REQUIREMENTS* WHY AVIENT?

In fact, you may have found yourself swimming in plastics alphabet soup and unsure where to start. Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are a type of plastic that have been refined to create a soft, rubbery feel—and they’re everywhere. Most thermoplastic elastomer products are also recyclable under Plastic Recycling Code 7.

Storage and Handling of Vinyl Plastisols A vinyl plastisol is a liquid dispersion of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resins, plasticizers, and miscellaneous additives. When baked, this liquid plastic becomes a fused solid plastic.

In plastics, paints, and inks carbon black is used as a color pigment. USES AND APPLICATIONS Colored printing inks, non-impact printing, coatings, paints and lacquers, plastics, spinning fibers, specials applications; pigment, conductivity, reaction media, UV-filters. Carbon Black is by far the most important black pigment, and is the second most used in terms of volume of all pigments employed by the plastic industry, ranking behind only TiO2.
