Venting is required to allow the air in the sprue, runner and cavity to leave the tool as the melt flows into the cavity.
Potential air traps in the part design can be predicted by flow simulation software.
Air ejection and the use of poppet can help strip large undercuts providing the material has room to deform when the air is applied.

GLS™ TPE
AUTOMOTIVE SOLUTIONS
IMPROVE VEHICLE
AIR QUALITY WITH
TPEs FOR AUTOMOTIVE
HVAC FLAPS
Vehicle interior air quality in passenger vehicles and strict automotive OEM standards have driven our advancement
of these low VOC, low fogging TPEs for use in heating/ventilation/air conditioning seals.
Avient’s GLS™ TPEs for
automotive HVAC seals are engineered to improve vehicle interior air quality (VIAQ), and have been shown to help
achieve global OEM requirements when externally tested against industry standards.

HOW GLS TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN AUTOMOTIVE HVAC APPLICATIONS
• Low VOC/FOG – externally tested to VDA 278
and shows significant reductions in volatile
organic compounds and fogging when
compared to current TPE technologies
• Industry standards – helps to achieve VOC/
FOG performance standards for improved VIAQ
• Reduced manufacturing steps – does not
require pre-drying or post heating to reduce
VOC in parts produced
• Design optimization – color can be added at
the machine
• Easy to process – can be extruded, injection
molded and extrusion blow molded
• Recyclable – Our automotive TPEs are
compatible with most municipal recycle
streams
• Global support – Avient automotive TPEs
can be manufactured in locations that are
convenient to your operations, including
North America, Europe or China
