When slush molding a door panel, vinyl
powder is added to a hot mold, which melts the powder
to a 1 mm-thick coating, and the mold then rotates
so that the melted material can fill the entire cavity.
The supplier found that the vinyl powders it was using
clumped in the corners of the mold during processing
rather than filling the mold, causing air entrapment
and generating unacceptable amounts of scrap.
Both the look and
feel of the molded vinyl armrests was an aesthetic
match to the luxury vehicle interior.

When PolyCase Ammunition was getting ready to produce its new line of high performance ammunition, the project team knew they needed a material that would be easily enable them to produce their patent-pending, injection molded projectile designs that function as well or better than conventional lead-core projectiles.
The Avient team used their extensive knowledge and experience working with high-density polymers to develop a specialized Gravi-Tech™ high-density polymer composite that met PolyCase’s needs and fit the profile of their proprietary injection molding process.
