A leading North American manufacturer of polypropylene (PP) hose for medical applications, including laser surgery, respiratory care and sleep apnea equipment, faced a challenge with its existing thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV). The Avient team assessed the application’s technical and operational requirements, and recommended a GLS™ Versalloy™ alloy in 45 Shore A durometer, an FDA-compliant medical TPV grade designed for overmolding onto PP.

These versatile additives are ideal for PE, PP or PET polymer-based applications including multilayer, blow molded containers and injection molded, wearable applications. Base resin: PE, PP, PS, PC, PET, PBT, PLA, EVA, PA
