Injection molding of plaques A Milacron injection molding machine was used to prepare plaques for the measurements of physical properties and adhesion. Injection velocity at 51mm/sec. Injection velocity at 51mm/sec.

Versaflex™ HC TPEs are compliant and easily colorable formulations for injection molding or overmolding uses. In addition to specific polymer solutions, experts will be on hand to share insights on the specialty services Avient provides, specifically Avient Design and ColorWorks™ Design and Technology Centers, to support customers throughout product development. Avient Design is a highly specialized group of industrial designers and project engineers who use a unique combination of design, polymer science, and manufacturing expertise to simplify the product design process and help get you to market faster.

molded into a unique design Working with TPEs also gives you extensive design freedom, customization and color options. But here’s a twist—TPEs can also be designed to absorb water if that is a desired property for your application.

Two characteristics often used to compare the attributes of FRP materials are performance and design flexibility. However, design flexibility is limited because, as thermosets, finished parts cannot be post-formed. It is possible to create injection or compression molded plastic parts that would be difficult or impossible to machine using traditional materials such as steel or aluminum.
