Transitions from thick to thin areas should be gradual to prevent flow problems, back fills, and gas traps. The spiral flow test is performed by injecting a material into a spiral mold (similar to a ribbon formed into a spiral).

Carbon sequestration, or carbon capture: the idea of polymer manufacturers using a supplier that provides plant-based raw materials, as plants capture carbon dioxide during their growth – rather than it being emitted into the atmosphere. Polymers with bio-based content, specifically with raw materials derived from plants, are typically shown as negative carbon emissions because of the carbon dioxide consumption that occurs. Globally, as of September 2023, almost 3,400 companies have set science-based goals – with 2,400 of those being net-zero commitments – in order to address greenhouse gas emission concerns (Science Based Targets).

While TPEs are useful in their basic form, they are often blended with other materials to make a new kind of TPE (like TPVs and TPUs) to produce the ideal properties for a specific application. This means a large volume of product (anywhere from tens of thousands to over a million units) can be created by heating the TPE blend and injecting it into a mold, where the TPEs cool and form the desired shape. Once heated, TPEs get softer and turn into a form that allows the material to flow freely, but they don’t turn into a liquid state as is the case when something is melted.

The Impact Finding ways to reduce weight is a high priority for vehicle manufacturers, because lighter weight corresponds to better fuel efficiency for gas-powered vehicles and more miles per charge for electric cars.
