Because low durometer (softer) material is a requirement for this application, the manufacturer considered a switch to a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
The company tried several TPE grades, hoping to find a material that would eliminate the adhesion problem while providing comparable softness to silicone.
With the Avient material, the manufacturer is expected to save $122,000 per year vs. silicone.

Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
ELECTRET CHARGING Electret charging works by improving the crystallinity and mechanical deformation of a material, to prevent electret charging from drifting.
By introducing additives with charge storage properties, “charge traps” are created which capture the electret charge applied to the meltblown nonwoven material.
