On the other hand, bio-sourced tend to be more opaque, making them easily colorable, but they do have a different tint than prime raw materials. On the other hand, TPEs are most commonly processed using in-line, single- screw injection equipment that has been routinely used in the plastics industry for decades. LSR is a thermoset material.

PROCESSING While selecting the right material combination is critical, understanding how to process the materials is equally important. We can help you optimize your process—including via hands-on testing and trials at our Denver-based Composites Innovation Cell—to achieve targeted part performance. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

These savings are realized through circular activities that enable more efficient use of materials and less reliance on the raw materials market, where prices are often volatile. Reliance on Materials of Low Residual Value The environmental and economic impacts of a material can vary greatly. Industries often choose a material because they are economically advantageous, but this also means the material can have low residual value.

When the company turned its eye on one of its most ubiquitous products – electrical junction boxes – it had a real challenge on its hands. They then modified the material to offer enough heat resistance so it could be overmolded onto polypropylene, the underlying material that provides the gaskets’ rigidity.  The material also can be used in tools originally constructed for halogenated materials with no rework required.

This year’s collection begins with minerals of the Stone Age and hand-made art of indigenous cultures. Palettes across unexpected product categories are inspired by these materials. Artists and designers experiment with different materials to create “handmade” craft impression.

intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem all of its outstanding 5.75% senior notes due 2025 (the "2025 senior notes") and pay related fees and expenses. NYSE: AVNT) provides specialized and sustainable materials solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. 

These new materials and services focus on meeting specific customer needs while helping to advance a circular economy. This combination of expertise and technologies will help customers adapt to a changing world with innovative materials, distinctive services, and a more secure supply chain. Knowledgeable representatives from Avient will also be on hand to help manufacturers address challenges in meeting sustainability and performance goals and offer visitors the opportunity for in-depth collaboration and discussion at our Collaboration Café.

PolyOne is showcasing its innovative polymer technologies at CMF Inspiration Walls, where experts will be on hand to connect with customers. The company adds value to global customers and improves sustainability through formulating materials, such as: Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

Experts from Avient will be on hand to help wire and cable customers address the complex and demanding needs of solar, telecommunications and transportation applications with its unique portfolio of materials including low smoke and fume non-halogen (LSFOH) polymers, functional additives, colorants, engineered fibers and yarns. ECCOH™ LSFOH Formulations are highly flame-retardant materials for cable jacketing and insulation including:  They also help reduce material use and weight.
