CLEVELAND – Collaborating with customers to replace metal in LED lights earned PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) recognition at the inaugural Polymers and Plastics Innovation Awards, presented by the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) Benelux Division.
In both cases, our experts helped innovative customers replace metal with specialty polymer formulations that can conduct heat, provide electrical insulation, or conduct electricity,” commented Holger Kronimus, vice president Europe, PolyOne Corporation.
The two companies teamed up to develop an all-plastic temperature sensor in the 2015 Ford Edge to control heating and cooling of the vehicle’s interior.

Color can be added to plastics used in medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging for brand recognition, increased appeal, or drug identification.
Formulated with bio-based polymers and pre-tested raw materials, these color and additive solutions help reduce the carbon footprint of medical plastics and mitigate the risk of non-compliance.

Three Automotive Parts Primed for Metal-to-Plastic Conversion
It is equally important to note that not all metal parts are suitable for conversion to plastics.
Thermally conductive components: Traditionally, thermoplastics’ inherent insulating properties limited their use in heat dissipation applications.

You may also hear these composites described as "plastic composites" or "fiber-reinforced plastic."
Glass fiber-reinforced composites are also used in other electrical transmission and distribution applications such as insulators, arresters, and pole line hardware.
While you may also hear these composites described as “plastic composites” or “reinforced plastic,” historically composite materials are most commonly thermoset.
