Following China’s legislation of Vehicle Interior Air Quality (VIAQ) regulations in 2017, global OEMs are increasingly focused on reducing the level of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), fogging and odor in new vehicles. Avient’s Onflex™ Lo TPE and Maxxam™ engineered material formulations are used for interior HVAC air flaps, trays, console carrier and instrument panels, and related interior parts.

Avient developed a technology suite that uses specialty engineered polyketone (PK) thermoplastics and helps our customers meet their goals to lower the carbon footprint of their products versus traditional materials, like PA66 and PA6. The new materials also offer sustainability benefits over the product lifecycle through carbon footprint reductions compared to competitive materials—PK base resin production emits up to 61 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) than nylon and POM.

The new container, to be made from an impact-modified polypropylene, needed good sidewall stiffness and excellent impact resistance. The design team reached out to long-term supplier Avient GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers to help develop a customized solution.

HOW PHASE BARRIERS MADE OF AVIENT TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR MOLDED CASE CIRCUIT BREAKERS Will not fail over the MCCB’s expected service life – Avient materials are flexible, have low moisture absorption, and have the needed dielectric integrity, leading to a more reliable phase barrier. Good insulation between phases – Our materials deliver dielectric properties better than nylon and equivalent to flexible PVC, helping to prevent arc flash across the phases.
