CUSTOM TPE RESOLVES A STICKY SITUATION FOR CONTACT LENS CONTAINER CASE STUDY: VERSAFLEX™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS Challe nge Accepted.
THE SOLUTION Avient formulated a custom Versaflex™ TPE that featured a low durometer with excellent resistance to adhesion (sticking).
However, before making the decision to switch from silicone to the Versaflex™ material, the company needed to feel confident that it would recoup its capital, which included a $50,000 investment in new tooling, within 12 months.

Versaflex
Most GLS styrenic TPEs (Dynaflex and some Versaflex) have fairly high mold shrinkage and cause the overmolding TPE to contract more than the substrate, which can result in warpage or cupping of the substrate part.
