SHANGHAI – January 27, 2021 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions and services, today announced the second material in its Artisan™ pre-colored thermoplastic series.
Our newest Artisan metallic effect ABS formulation can help design engineers address these current trends – as well as scratch resistance, chemical resistance, and design freedom – while eliminating secondary processing.”
Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

Discover the effects of material formulations and thickness on dielectric performance
Plastic parts come into play for 5G by ensuring wireless signals can easily pass through the plastic material to minimize signal loss.
For 5G and beyond, signal transparency of materials will become more critical since those frequencies will require higher energy and less loss.

Andwin Scientific sought out a supplier, knowing that any materials needed to be inert to liquid medicines such as amoxicillin – not to mention FDA-compliant.
The shell would be made with a custom-formulated Synprene™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) blend that provides resistance to most common medications and is flexible enough for the fins to work as designed.
To assure the consistency of the product’s appearance and quality, the Synprene™ blend was designed to tolerate processing variability.

Stop thinking one-for-one: Rather than looking for materials that can replace a metal part using the identical geometry, designers are now capitalizing on the additional freedom to form plastics into net shapes.
Don’t wait too long to select materials: Engage with a polymer supplier early on in the design process to specify the exact material attributes you need.
