These fluoropolymer properties are widely depended on in many different industries.
For example, fluoropolymers are used as coatings for wire and cable found in buildings and aircraft thanks to their natural flame retardance.
Understanding the part size and wall thickness allows a masterbatch to be designed with the appropriate pigment strength, particle size, and dispersibility.

On the other hand, bio-sourced tend to be more opaque, making them easily colorable, but they do have a different tint than prime raw materials.
Based on the raw materials used and manufacturing practices, these materials have a different product carbon footprint (PCF).
Thermoplastic elastomers have rapid cooling times and do not require secondary operations or curing agents, which leads to quick turnaround and fabrication.

Extended machine nozzles may also be used to reduce sprue length and size.
Styrenic TPEs are anisotropic, thus they have different physical properties in the flow direction versus the cross-flow direction.
Valve gates do not require the material in the part to freeze before the valve is closed and hold pressure is released.

While these issues were a challenge, they also saw it was an opportunity to do something new, interesting and differentiating for their product line.
Recommended a finish that would have a higher quality feel, and molding texture for optimal grip, finish, mold release and mold repair capabilities.
Rada launched their new Anthem Wave product line that featured a larger ergonomic handle to provide greater comfort and versatility to different knife holding styles.
