– October 9, 2018 – At the SPE TPO Automotive Engineered Polyolefins Conference today, PolyOne unveiled Maxxam™ LO, a low odor talc-filled polypropylene. We’re helping our customers address current trends with a low odor product that can withstand the rigors of underhood specifications.

This development represents a proactive response to demands from our customers in oil & gas, transportation, and industrial industries looking for next-generation engineered materials with a property retention as low as -22°F for pipes, tubing, fluid management, and more,” said Eric Wollan, general manager, PlastiComp at Avient. Complēt PKE formulations are semi-crystalline and deliver excellent chemical resistance, low moisture uptake, and dimensional stability similar to nylon (PA66).

Overmolding Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Dynalloy™ 8900 Series – Low density polyethylene (LDPE) overmolding

Need low-volume and prototype manufacturing capabilities? Keep weight low and durability high with advanced composites.

Bio-derived,  Low Water Absorption Nymax™ BIO formulations are highly engineered, low water absorption polyamides (PA) that provide a more sustainable alternative to PA66 glass fiber-filled materials.  

Carbon fiber’s high tensile strength and low density enable light weighting and make it an excellent alternative to heavy metals, like steel. The superior strength, low weight, corrosion resistance and ability to adhere to concrete make carbon fiber composites an excellent material for infrastructure applications that require strength and durability.
