Choosing the best solution for your material, process, and end use application means evaluating different technologies against your particular requirements and goals, and then avoiding common pitfalls.

Avoid using too much regrind  

Deep unventable blind pockets or ribs should be avoided. Avoid thin walls that cannot be blown off the cores by air-assist ejection.

Following proposals from the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) and US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to restrict the use of polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), these grades extend Avient’s LubriOne™ formulations portfolio avoiding the use of fluorinated lubricants such as PTFE.     The new Stat-Tech TPEs have been developed to help enhance system performance, whether protecting sensitive electronics from interference, shielding electronics in Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), or avoiding static build-up in industrial applications such as conveyor belts.”  

Working together with GOBIE designers, PolyOne helped develop a recyclable, dishwasher-safe, and FDA-compliant TPE material that avoids leaching into the bottle’s contents. These FDA-compliant colorants were used to produce fresh and bright hues, pairing perfectly with the TPE material to avoid bonding problems that GOBIE had experienced previously with other materials.

It can help designers and engineers avoid costly detours and gain confidence in the quality of their process and application.

By replacing lead with the Gravi-Tech formulation, PolyCase Ammunition avoids the regulatory, disposal and employee exposure challenges associated with lead.
