The material was found to be very slippery, resistant to high heat, and chemically inert. For example, the heat and chemical resistance of a fluoropolymer will greatly influence the pigment selection process.  

Syncure™ XLPE Cross-linkable Polyethylene Formulations: a range of silane-grafted, moisture cross-linkable polyethylene (XLPE) systems for wire insulation and cable jacketing, delivering high resistance to heat, oil, creep, and abrasion with good low-temperature performance and outstanding flame retardancy according to UL 44, UL 4703 and CSA 22.2 requirements reSound™ REC TPEs: specially developed for automotive interiors, formulated with 55% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content to offer a more sustainable alternative to standard TPE grades without compromising performance criteria such as ultraviolet (UV) stability, low volatile organic compound (VOC) content, low odor, and low fogging in applications such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) nozzles, interior mats, and cup holders

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Flame Retardants for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens Ignitability and flame spread, with or without an additional radiant heat source, are a particular concern for fibers used in indoor applications, or indeed anywhere where human lives could be endangered. They help make fibers more resistant to ignition and control flame propagation, smoke and heat generation.

Minimum heat-affected zone

Avient has developed a "Heat Stability Protocol" to screen new additive solutions for their impact on color and NIAS through two full recycle loops at 100% recycled content.

Stan-Tone HC Plus colorants provide indoor or outdoor lightfastness, resistance to harsh chemicals, and heat stability.

Lightweight, strong and durable, with good heat, flame and chemical resistance

Oxidation and heat aging in plastics frequently cause a chain reaction that forms free radicals, breaks up the long polymer chains and degrades the appearance and performance of the plastic.

Lightweight, strong and durable, with good heat, flame and chemical resistance

Excellent color fastness (light, washing, heat, rubbing, etc.)
