– PolyOne today announced that Montana’s WO Design relies on high-performance GLS™ Dynaflex™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to manufacture WO|Bone, a unique dog toy that supports the Ethiopia- based charity, Bring Love In. We’ve been very happy with the PolyOne TPE material, and based on steadily increasing sales our customers agree,” said Josh Allen, founder of WO Design. Bring Love In, the charity supported by WO Design, is based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Wilflex Armor – Newly formulated under base inks with the latest bleed blocking chemistry and low cure technology to fight the toughest dye migration Rutland SilExtreme – A silicone-based ink system of whites, bases, colors and special effects for delivering stretch and feel on performance fabrics

Percept technologies can be tailored to a wide variety of processing conditions, end-use applications, and authentication techniques based on overt, covert, or forensic-based approaches. These solutions enable companies to readily identify counterfeit products with easy-to-use methods based on additives and unique identifiers called taggants.

The new reSound™ NF bio-filled grades are based on polymers such as polypropylene (PP) with 15 to 20 percent bio-based filler. The new bio-filled polymer from Avient has enabled us to reduce the carbon footprint of a range of our products by reducing the consumption of petroleum-based polymers.

The Zodiac portfolio now includes non-PVC inks, silicone inks, and water-based inks. Comprised of a combination of bases, additives, pigments, ready-for-use (RFU) colors, and special-effect inks, the Zodiac Taurus family of non-PVC ink solutions also deliver the convenience and printability of traditional plastisol ink systems. Highlights: •    Bases and bleed barriers •    Improved durability and elongation •    Modifiers and additives include thickener, reducer, and matte additives to increase the productivity and improve the finish, and effect additives to achieve textured suede or high density (3D) effect •    RFU colors a palette of 14 RFU mixing color inks, including fluorescents and silver and gold metallic •    Special-effect inks add dimension and dazzling impact to any flat print

As equipment manufacturers vie to capitalize on this sensational growth, they must develop innovative products that excite and engage with a diverse customer base. Using micro-layering techniques with polymer-based synthetic fibers can generate an exceptionally durable personal flotation device fabric that is also breathable and lightweight. Brand your entire product line with a unique aesthetic or set off individual products to appeal to a niche customer base.

Using an under-base gray as a dye filter will also greatly enhance the bleed resistance. The under-base gray must also cure at a lower temperature or the advantage is lost. The only limiting factor may be an under-base gray on a heavily-textured fabric.
