Important nutrients including vitamins A (retinol),
B2 (riboflavin), B12 (cobalamin), C and D are quickly
degraded when exposed to visible light, and the
oxidative products of dairy proteins and lipids give
rise to off-flavors.

KEY CUSTOMER CHALLENGES:
• Improving Fuel Economy - Incorporating innovative lighter-weight alternative
materials as a cost-effective way to reduce fuel consumption
• Reducing Energy Consumption and Dependence on Fossil Fuels -
Negative public perceptions of fossil fuels are challenging companies to utilize
alternative energy sources and also to reduce overall demand (consumption)
• Reducing Carbon Footprint - Companies are seeking assistance from their
suppliers to address the ever-increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprint
• Lessening Environmental Impact - Manufacturers are looking to reduce
dependence on processes with high environmental impact such as the release of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) during painting

PERFORMANCE COMPARISON
As a thermoset, LSR can perform at continuous temperatures in
excess of 200°C.
There are medical grade TPEs that can be autoclaved
up to 135°C for 15 minutes, but the inherent thermoplasticity of
most TPEs make them susceptible to softening under extreme heat.
