Brand owners who collaborate with PolyOne are taking advantage of Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified Formulations, metallic-effect GLS™ thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), and InVisiOSM Color and Design Services.
For example, Gravi-Tech formulations impart weight, sound and a metallic finish to caps and closures for both cosmetics and spirits applications, while removing the secondary operations and constraints that traditional metals require.

Gravi-Tech™ density modified materials give designers and brand owners a means to convey quality and sophistication.
Luxury cosmetics closures made using Gravi-Tech formulations give customers the texture and weight of metal, while also providing more design freedom than metals.

Therma-Tech™ Thermally Conductive Formulations
A collaborative team from the two companies looked at potential options before developing a material that combined two grades of Avient’s Therma-Tech™ thermal management formulations.
Reduced material usage: The Therma-Tech formulation required 37 percent less material due to its lower density compared with aluminum.

Therma-Tech™ Thermally Conductive Formulations
Working together, the group determined that Therma-Tech™ thermally conductive polymers had all the necessary properties to replace the aluminum heat sinks.
They eventually settled on Therma-Tech TT6600-5001EC as the best solution to provide comparable heat dissipation.
