PolyOne Launches New Technologies, Highlights Design Services and 3D Printing at NPE 2015

Also announced are two new Edgetek™ PKE non-halogen flame retardant (NHFR) formulations made with polyketone, which can have a lower carbon footprint compared to polyamide 6 reinforced materials, and are pre-colored in orange for high-voltage connectors in electric vehicles. With Edgetek polyketone grades, we offer attractive alternatives to polyamide that can lower carbon footprint. Polyamide (PA) 6, which is traditionally used in these applications, has several downsides that affect dimensional stability of the part, such as water absorption.

This new collaboration with PolyOne will allow us to serve the textile printing market with industry-leading inks.”

Closely working together, IŞILSAN and a Avient technical team developed a new polyamide-based formulation that provided the wear resistance of LubriOne™ with improved structural strength. The company, which does its own injection molding, found that the polyamide and LubriOne™ combination generated a 50% reduction in scrap rates.
