The manufacturer worked with Avient to formulate a custom Versaflex™ TPE that featured a low durometer with excellent resistance to adhesion (sticking). But before making the decision to switch from silicone to the Versaflex material, the company needed to feel confident that it would recoup its capital, which included a $50,000 investment in new tooling, within 12 months.

Versaflex Most GLS styrenic TPEs (Dynaflex and some Versaflex) have fairly high mold shrinkage and cause the overmolding TPE to contract more than the substrate, which can result in warpage or cupping of the substrate part.

Versaflex™ HC Thermoplastic Elastomers: high-performance medical-grade formulations for demanding applications, including medical tubing, gaskets and stoppers, and bags, bottles and films. The portfolio also boasts the addition of Versaflex™ HC BT218, a new biopharmaceutical tubing grade developed in response to supply challenges and sterilization concerns for an array of medical devices

Most Dynaflex® (Styrenic block copolymer TPE), Versaflex® (polar modified alloys) and Versalloy® (TPV alloy compounds are suitable for two-shot or insert molding with a polypropylene (PP). The Over-molding (Versaflex® OM Series and VersollonTM which is a Urathane alloy) grades are specially formulated to bond to a variety of substrates.

Recently, Finetool Saudi Arabia Company Limited of Jeddah selected Versaflex HC for the resealing septum in its insert-molded IV bottle cap. By choosing Versaflex HC over vulcanized rubber materials, Finetool improved the resealing performance of the septum and was able to cut down on processing steps for significant system cost reductions. Apart from manufacturing optimization, Versaflex HC helped Finetool to avoid coring—the tendency for a material to produce tiny fragments when penetrated by a needle—with 6mm IV infusion spikes and needles 16 gauge and smaller, even after multiple uses.
