Always on the lookout for environmentally friendly technologies, Schneider-Electric has developed a reputation for having the “greenest” applications on the market, helping to differentiate itself from competitors by its proactive approach. Finally, the OnFlex-S HF grade was developed to bond sufficiently and be chemically compatible with polypropylene.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Zodiac™ Aquarius™ waterbased inks have been developed to meet the sustainability demands of the consumer without compromising the performance and durability demands expected by the printer. HIGH SOLIDS INK Zodiac Aquarius™ high solids ink were developed to meet the performance and durability requirements of sport brands.

We wanted to make it easier for our customers to create durable piping systems by developing a plastic flapper valve that could be easily fused onto polyethylene (PE) pipe. THE SOLUTION Gravi-Tech™ density-modified formulations are unique, high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-based alternatives to lead and other traditional metals.

Developing the most appropriate formulation for an application is our forte. We have helped customers develop parts that are: • Wear-resistant: End products such as bearings and sleeves that do not require lubrication • Conductive: Electrical and/or thermal conductivity, in molded and extruded parts • X-Ray opaque: Used for medical and dental devices.

Product developers reported that they needed a better TPE to provide superior bonding performance with ABS without requiring high temperature and pressure during 2K molding. These savings help the company to achieve high margins on its top-of-the-line 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. • Gripping feel = safety and usability for customers: Hand grips created from overmolded OnFlex-S TPE provide excellent anti-slip performance even when wet.

History The technology to produce Phenolic Fiber was initially developed in the late 1960’s with commercial fiber production and development by Gunei Chemical Industry Co. based in Japan.
