While rigid polymers are typically used for this because of their conductive and wireless properties, Avient has found additional value in low signal loss technology within its thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) portfolio.
a) what effect do thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) formulations have on the attenuation (energy absorption) of a signal ranging from 20-45 GHz?

Thermoplastics offer versatility and a POLYONE CORPORATION wide range of applications.
Further performance can be delivered through an engineered thermoplastic sheet or thick film, which may incorporate more than one resin formulation or composite in multiple layers to impart additional properties such as gas barrier, structural integrity and lightweighting.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
