For spiral flow information about a specific grade or additional details about the spiral flow test procedure, please refer to the TPE Tip #7. In addition, the sprue will need to be trimmed thus appearance quality of the part is usually poor. The efficiency of the design may be verified by recording the time it takes to make a complete color change while producing parts.

In addition to use in their basic form, TPEs are widely used to modify the properties of rigid thermoplastics, usually improving impact strength. In addition to these TPEs, two new technologies have emerged. Additives

HellermannTyton decided to develop the seat securement part using injection-molded Bergamid resin in a standard black color. A major German automaker has already made the switch to the new seat fastening part for a vehicle currently in production. • New material = competitive differentiator: HellermannTyton is able to set its offering apart from the competition by adding significant value, particularly lighter weight and lower system costs. • Design flexibility = fast customization: Plastic offers much greater design freedom than metal, enabling the company to quickly develop and produce variations of the seat securement part for different customers. • Lighter weight = environmental benefits: By reducing the weight of the part by approximately 50%, Bergamid resin can help automakers achieve better fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions. • Excellent performance = customer satisfaction: The strength, impact resistance, low warpage and additional properties of Bergamid resin help ensure the part meets stringent OEM requirements and satisfies its customers. • Injection molding = system cost savings: Compared to metal fabrication, which requires time-consuming secondary operations, injection molded plastics can be produced as a net-shape part in a single step, boosting productivity and lowering system costs.

This simple addition to your design offers a practical way to improve your product’s surface quality, add custom color and sensory effects, and it works with most substrates.

However, when active oxygen scavengers and other additives are used in PET bottle production clarity can decrease, which negatively impacts product appearance, customer appeal and brand value. Compared to previous grades of Amosorb, 4020G halves the b* color shift resulting in lower impact on quality of rPET.

The company has updated its projections to include Dyneema, present the Distribution segment as discontinued operations, and adjust its outlook to reflect current demand conditions and additional unfavorable currency exchange. In addition, and in the near term, we believe current global demand is likely further weakened by customer inventory destocking."
