Various applications that benefit from the advantages of CFRTPs  The Challenge: Consider a market-leading tier 1 supplier that needed to improve the strength of the front-end module to prevent the vehicle hood latch from opening in a crash. What continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites are, and how they differ from other fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials 

The new products have been very well received by consumers, and have allowed the company to neutralize the competitive threat from all-plastic sprayers. Lower system costs = higher margins: By reducing waste from part deformation, the Avient TPE allowed the manufacturer to leverage efficient, fast 2K molding for system cost reduction. Gripping feel = safety and usability for customers: Hand grips created from overmolded OnFlex-S TPE provide excellent anti-slip performance even when wet.

– At Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West 2017 this week, PolyOne is demonstrating commercial medical products designed and built from its comprehensive portfolio of technologies for the healthcare industry. And thanks to our formulation expertise, we can select from nearly any polymer chemistry to drive that success.” PolyOne is exhibiting at MD&M West in Anaheim, California, in booth 2201 from February 7-9, 2017.

ISTANBUL, Turkey – Akboru Elektrik, a leading supplier of lighting systems for pools, hot tubs and gardens, selected Therma-Tech™ thermally conductive polymers from PolyOne to replace aluminum for heat sinks in LED swimming pool lighting. As a result, aluminum heat sinks are often used to draw heat away from the diode to extend its performance over time. Photo Caption: Switching from metal to heat sinks molded with Therma-Tech thermally conductive polymers enabled Akboru Elektrik to increase the expected useful lifetime of pool lighting by 200%.

The company noted that proceeds from the sale will be used to strengthen its balance sheet and fund future growth initiatives, including investing in sustainable solutions and specialty acquisitions.  They are based on management's expectations that involve a number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: our ability to identify and evaluate acquisition targets and consummate and integrate acquisitions; disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; an ability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to acquisitions and integration, working capital reductions, cost reductions and employee productivity goals; information systems failures and cyberattacks; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.

It also has good temperature resistance, performing over a broad temperature range, from minus 40 to 80 degrees Celsius and excellent resistance to water absorption. This makes them valuable in aerial drop cables, which are often under continuous stress from the clamps that hold them in place. These formulations also provide excellent UV resistance protecting outdoor/indoor cables from varying weather conditions.
