Our customers value the
breadth of our solutions as we can tap into a broad array of
raw materials to solve their specific needs.
Our formulation
expertise supports material science decisions, while our
processing expertise guides customers to use the materials
properly.
Lastly, our design capabilities ensure that the
application is designed perfectly for the specific end use.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-04/Versaflex XP Wet Grip Product Bulletin_NEW.pdf
Tested against commonly used wet grip materials,
the Versaflex XP 2850 material demonstrated
exceptional wet kinetic COF performance—
showing more than a 100% improvement over the
competition—and better dry COF performance as
well.
The material may be injection molded,
overmolded or extruded, offering expanded design
freedom for adding a touch of security and reducing
slippage where water can otherwise make products
slippery
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
