TROUBLESHOOTING...........................................................................................................28 3 INTRODUCTION Objective This document provides guidelines for part design, mold design and processing of styrenic block copolymer (SBC) thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs). The shrinkage values reported by Avient are determined using a 0.125” thick plaque. GLS TPEs have lower viscosity (higher flow) than traditional thermoplastics and will leak back easier than other materials.

The benefits of using long fiber thermoplastic (LFT) composites in these automotive applications to achieve these objectives are well documented. GEAR UP FOR SUCCESS From style to performance, Avient has aftermarket manufacturers covered. Avient makes no warranties or guarantees respecting suitability of either Avient’s products or the information for your process or end-use application.
