Avient Announces Healthcare TPU Manufacturing Expansion and Showcases Specialty and Sustainable Materials for Healthcare at Medtec China 2024 Versaflex™ HC & Versaflex™ HC BIO BT Series TPEs: grades formulated specifically to handle the complexities of healthcare and biopharmaceutical tubing, including excellent weldability, kink resistance, and low extractables, delivering comparable performance to competing materials such as silicone and PVC tubing, while providing lower Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) values than other materials* The Versaflex HC BIO BT218 grade is formulated with 40% bio-derived content and provides a sustainable substitute for traditional materials. Avient’s experts can provide technical support for material selection, part and tool design, and process development to help accelerate commercialization.

Engineered Materials for EV Batteries Engineered Polymer Materials for EV Batteries Lower your carbon footprint with these structurally reinforced polyketone materials.

These new materials also solve the long-standing problem of undesirable water absorption levels in other bio-derived polyamide materials available today. Renewable, plant-based raw materials, have been shown to offer significantly lower product carbon footprint values than typical petroleum-based feedstock. Our new Nymax BIO line of bio-based polyamide formulations exemplifies our continuous innovation in developing sustainable materials, and expands the material choices for design engineers while mitigating the risk of water absorption.”

The materials exhibited warpage, causing an uneven surface in a substantial number of parts produced.  Switching from two blended resins to a single material delivered several key benefits to the manufacturer, including: Reduced drying time: The new material reduced drying time by 70 percent.

And because they are thermoplastic, these CFRTP materials are more easily recycled compared to thermoset materials. Up to 120" slit-to-width laminate material (125" raw edge material) Marine Application Material Solutions
