Challe
nge Accepted.
It must also have the required heat
resistance, be strong enough to maintain a tight electrical
connection and be flexible enough to allow a snap fit
Working closely with the
manufacturer’s engineers, Avient determined that the material
required a special combination of properties:
• A heat-resistant base resin that would provide the level of
signal dampening prescribed
• Mechanical properties that would ensure an effective
electrical connection and at the same time allow for
snap-fit installation
• A cost-effective solution that would enable the
manufacturer to compete in this new market
Striving for optimal results, the manufacturer evaluated more
than 30 different materials.

HOW GLS TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN HOME APPLIANCE
ANTI-VIBRATION FEET
• Reduced appliance movement and noise –
vibration damping technology reduces
movement and noise of the appliance
when in use
• Resistance to wear and tear – TPEs are proven
to maintain their shape and resist tears with
low compression set
• Better performance and function – increase
design freedom with material selection
flexibility
• Improved processability – boost efficiency
with injection molding processing and reduce
overall production cycle time
and costs
• Reduced number of part defects – eliminate
secondary operations to achieve consistent
and controlled results

PACKAGING SOLUTIONS
CHEMICAL RESISTANT
SOLUTIONS FOR COSMETIC,
PERSONAL CARE AND
HOUSEHOLD PACKAGING
We’ve developed a line of chemical resistant thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) that do not discolor, etch, crack or
delaminate.
What’s more, they are FDA and REACH compliant and resist those chemicals particular to cosmetics,
personal care, and household products.
CHEMICAL RESISTANT TPEs ADD FUNCTIONALITY THAT BRINGS VALUE
TO CONSUMERS
• Chemical Resistance – Resists aggressive
soaps, detergents, lotions, oils and solvents
found in cosmetic, personal care and
household products
• Regulatory* – Compositionally compliant
with certain FDA and REACH regulations
• Value – Economical alternative to silicone
and over-engineered medical grade TPEs
• Easy to Process – Can be injection molded
and overmolded right onto the substrate
including PP, ABS, etc

Rigid polymers typically used
to make housings for medical devices are
failing to resist these chemicals.
PolyOne conducted a comparative
study of polymer resistance to three common, harsh disinfectant chemistries.
When this improved chemical resistance is combined with excellent
melt flow, flame resistance, UV resistance, and appearance, it’s easy to see why Resilience™ HC Rigid
Molding Materials are becoming the materials of choice for rigid medical device housings.
