To learn more about our wet grip TPEs, contact Avient at +1.844.4AVIENT (1.844.428.4368) or visit avient.com. The customized TPE offered excellent hydrophobic qualities and similar melt strength to PP while still maintaining its key mechanical properties. Ultimately, Avient customized a GLS™ wet grip TPE that outmaneuvered traditional materials—delivering dynamic hydrophobic performance, translucent aesthetics, non-abrasive comfort grip, and excellent UV protection.

TECHNICAL BULLETIN reSound™ BIO Thermoplastic Elastomers Customizable Bio-based TPEs reSound™ BIO TPEs are formulated utilizing between 35 and 60 percent bio-renewable content. Initially available in overmolding grades compatible with PP, all grades are formulated to achieve comparable performance to traditional TPEs. This expertise enables brands to meet sustainability goals while maintaining the mechanical properties of traditional TPEs.

Versaflex™ TF Adhesive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) for Textile Fabrics As consumers are becoming more health- conscious, there’s a steady increase in the demand for functional, lightweight, and comfortable fitness clothing that is also visually appealing. Compared to TPU adhesive films and traditional glue, these new TPE solutions can deliver a seamless and strong adhesion to polyester and nylon fabrics, enabiling a uniform thickness and overall appearance for an athletic, close-fitting, and non-bruising finish. Versaflex TF Adhesive TPEs offer easy processing and shaping, and can also be custom-colored and cost-efficiently laser-cut.

Using phase barriers made of Avient’s OnFlex™ S HF, HF 7001, and Synprene or Synprene™ RT thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) will help you deliver on that promise. Easier to install – Our TPEs are more flexible than nylon and flexible PVC, which makes the MCCB easier to install, service and inspect. Low moisture absorption – While nylon is water- absorbent and loses dielectric performance in the presence of excessive water, our TPEs exhibit low moisture absorption and maintain the necessary dielectric properties over the MCCB’s service life.

IMPROVE FINISH AND PERFORMANCE CHEMICALLY COMPATIBLE TPES FOR COSMETIC PACKAGING Functionality and differentiation are key when designing cosmetic packaging. Ability to add surface texture – Our injection molded TPEs are easily processed in commonly used, complex molds. Simpler production process – Overmolding Versaflex PKG TPEs is an effective method for simplifying a two-step process into a single step
