This can occur due to improper injection molding conditions or the incompatibility of a TPE or vulcanized silicone material with certain additives.

Charging only works when the correct masterbatch is utilized which, together with the fiber denier, gram weight and number of layers, ensures that the middle layer of protective masks can effectively trap smaller particles.

Since maintaining a good melt flow can sometimes be challenging with effect pigments, our team of material experts from Avient Design can provide support to reduce new product design errors by linking design with manufacturability and to speed up the design process.

It can also help shorten launch time for new product ranges, allowing fast and reliable checks prior to initiating sample development.
