Each formulation was designed to selectively bond to a substrate based on the functionality of the substrate material. As the formulation was altered, bondability of TPE-2 to a substrate varied. CONCLUSION Two classes of TPE formulations have been developed and studied for rigid thermoplastics overmolding applications.

Outstanding color schemes, both interior and exterior, can be the tipping point that turns a casual browser into a serious shopper. Before you formulate a plan for utilizing color, try starting with these two steps: 

THE SOLUTION: EVOLVED TPEs PERFORM FOR HEALTHCARE APPLICATIONS Recent thermoplastic elastomer advancements give manufacturers the ability to use specialized TPEs for healthcare to modernize processing and minimize secondary operations. In addition, the formulation meets ISO 15759 requirements for medical infusion equipment and is manufactured in an ISO 13485 facility. If you’re considering a switch to TPEs, our expert team can consult on: • Part design • Application environment • Tooling and machine selection For additional information on the opportunities associated with TPEs, call us at +1.844.4AVIENT (1.844.428.4368) or visit avient.com.
