Avient engineered a new customized formulation for the part, which provided both the processability required for extremely short cycle injection-compression molding, as well as including an additive to stabilize the material when in contact with copper. THE IMPACT Through a combination of its global footprint, expert technical services, and local production, Avient accepted DENSO’s challenge and responded with a new customized formulation that exceeded performance requirements, eliminated overmolding, and reduced cycle times.

When Avient proposed re-engineering the yoke with an alternative composite material, Bettcher was receptive, but needed evidence that a polymer solution would retain the reliable performance its customers demanded. Because of the collaborative engineering with Avient, we were able to confidently transition to the long fiber technology and ultimately deliver a high-end, innovative product to our customers.”

Further, the team developed a custom colorant that matched the automaker’s interior color specs, and then developed the final product so that the armrest could be molded in color. Given industry-specific cost structures for niche vehicle door production, this improvement can be estimated to save the customer approximately $100,000 annually.

Our experience in formulating of light diffusion additives enables us to meet our customers’ goals for light diffusion and light transmission while providing more design and production flexibility than standard polymers.
