HellermannTyton, a global leader in designing and manufacturing fastening solutions for the automotive industry, wanted to improve upon the bent steel plate it was using to fabricate a complicated seat fastening device for a leading automotive manufacturer. The new seat securement part has already been adopted by one OEM customer, and we are confident that other manufacturers will come to us for this lightweight, cost-efficient solution.”

Sustainability Spotlight Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents Reflection electron microscopy (REM) view of foamed plastic Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents are supplied as concentrates CHEMICAL FOAMING AGENTS (CFAs) are chemical substances that react under the influence of heat to release gas into the plastic matrix during the manufacturing process of plastic parts. The portfolio includes non-hazardous endothermic substances that require minimum cooling of the plastic parts after manufacturing. SUPPORT Our experts can offer product recommendations in the chemical foaming of plastics, taking into consideration: • Manufacturing process • Application polymer grades • Regulatory requirements (e.g., food contact compliance, toy regulations) • Targeted performance requirement (e.g., lightweighting, polymer use reduction, insulation, improved processing) They also provide technical assistance and best practices for using Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents in the best conditions for a successful foaming of the plastic parts.

It is therefore a mandatory prerequisite for EU manufacturers and cable users to be in full compliance with EU Biocidal Product Regulation No. 528/2012. Cesa Aversive Technologies offer cable manufacturers and cable users the ability to be fully compliant with this regulation by incorporating an officially authorized masterbatch into cable jacketing materials. TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS • Helps provide long term cable protection against rats and termites • Enables manufacturers and cable users to be compliant with EU Regulations • Easy to use, direct incorporation in the jacket, no need for additional layer to protect the cable • Helps avoid unplanned service breakdowns with associated high repair costs 1 CA-Sept15-Doc.6.2- Final 2 A masterbatch should be regarded as a biocidal product if it is has a biocidal function.

TECHNICAL BULLETIN ColorMatrix™ Joule™ Reheat Additive Proprietary IR Absorber ColorMatrix™ Joule™ reheat additive is a proprietary IR absorber manufactured and marketed by ColorMatrix worldwide for use in PET resin formulations suitable for carbonated soft drinks and beverage applications. Occasionally, technicians from the equipment manufacturers are used to establish the ‘entitlement’ performance of a particular machine and most major manufacturers have technical service teams to help with this activity.
