The use of 2K (two-component) molding – in which the base resin is injected and allowed to set up for a short time, and then is overmolded by injecting the TPE – streamlines the manufacturing process.
It required a high temperature and a strong injection pressure to bond to the acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) substrate, which caused the resin to deform.
High-end product line = competitive advantage: With Avient’s OnFlex-S TPE, developers successfully designed and produced a new, high-end product line that compares favorably with all-plastic sprayers in terms of appearance, performance and durability.

Combined with engineering support and design for manufacturability services from Avient Design, our new production line offers local customers an efficient and agile setup that helps them accelerate speed to market and differentiate from their competition.”
Using these composites as a metal replacement also fosters significant weight reductions along with the time and cost savings benefits of single-step injection molding.
Additionally, Avient’s team of specialized industrial designers and project engineers at Avient Design possess extensive knowledge of both materials and molding.
