CASE STUDY: GLASARMOR™ BALLISTIC RESISTANT PANELS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. Metal fencing or concrete walls and barriers would protect against ballistic fire, but are permanent structures that can be difficult to repair or replace in the case of an attack.

CASE STUDY: MAXXAM™ POLYOLEFIN FORMULATIONS NEW MATERIAL FOR PRECISELY ENGINEERED VEHICLE Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. However, in this case, designers had reduced the thickness of the part wall significantly to achieve a relative weight saving of 90 percent.

FOILING COUNTERFEITERS WITH SPECIALIZED COLOR & ADDITIVE MASTERBATCHES CASE STUDY: COLOR, ADDITIVES & INKS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. Percept™ anti-counterfeiting technology created an authentication method not visible to the human eye to help lower the financial result of fighting court cases, once the covert authentication was revealed.

CUSTOM TPE RESOLVES A STICKY SITUATION FOR CONTACT LENS CONTAINER CASE STUDY: VERSAFLEX™ THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. The manufacturer produces 7.5 million cases per year, and was using liquid injection molded (LIM) silicone for this part.

MATERIAL BREAKTHROUGH: VERSAFLEX™ CE BLUE JEAN STAIN RESISTANT TPES FOR WHITE OR LIGHT-COLORED PHONE CASES Phone case brands have struggled to design white or light-colored cases that do not stain when in contact with blue jeans. Until now, silicone was the only proven material that was resistant to staining, but silicone produces a long list of challenges to phone case brands: lengthy lead times, supply chain issues, and manufacturing complexities.

ENERGY MOVES FROM LAND TO WATER CASE STUDY: PHOTOVOLTAIC FLOATING POWER STATION Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. While solar power is touted as a viable option to meet the growing demand, development of land-based photovoltaic power stations is limited in some cases by the cost of land, and in others by less-than-optimal amounts of sunlight.

CASE STUDY: EXCELITE™ IM CHEMICAL FOAMING ADDITIVES THE CHALLENGE With more major OEMs introducing lightweighting initiatives, the use of chemical foaming additives (CFAs) is becoming more common among automotive injection molders. In this case, a top tier-1 automotive molder was routinely running cycle times longer than originally quoted, as inconsistencies in CFA performance were creating processing issues and generating more scrap.

CASE STUDY: THERMA-TECH™ THERMALLY CONDUCTIVE FORMULATIONS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. Traditionally aluminum or zinc aluminum alloys (Zamak) are used for heat sinks due to their high thermal conductivity, which was also the case at Elausa.

You need to offer molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) that will not fail over the duration of their service lives. ONFLEX S HF ONFLEX S HF & HF 7001 SYNPRENE RT-5180 ROHS NATURAL Commercial Availability Asia Europe Americas RoHS Compliant Yes Yes Yes Color Natural Natural Natural Hardness 70/80/90 Shore A 50/70/90 Shore A 80 Shore A Flame Retardant Package Non-Halogenated Non-Halogenated Halogenated Processing Method Injection Molding Extrusion Injection Molding Injection Molding Extrusion ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONICS SOLUTIONS REDUCE POSSIBILITY OF MOLDED CASE CIRCUIT BREAKER FAILURE WITH TPE PHASE BARRIERS www.avient.com Copyright © 2025, Avient Corporation. HOW PHASE BARRIERS MADE OF AVIENT TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR MOLDED CASE CIRCUIT BREAKERS Will not fail over the MCCB’s expected service life – Avient materials are flexible, have low moisture absorption, and have the needed dielectric integrity, leading to a more reliable phase barrier.

CASE STUDY: GORDON COMPOSITES™ THERMOSET SPRINGS Ch all en ge A cc ep te d. In the case of prosthetic legs and feet, the device must align with the patient’s natural gait, activity level, and mobility goals, while also maintaining comfort and safety.
