For this manufacturer, another appealing aspect of working with this material was Avient’s dedicated TPE production line in Spain, which is used solely to manufacture TPEs for overmolding applications. The material helps the company produce attractive, high-quality garden sprayers featuring precisely fitting parts. Customers can keep a firm grasp of the sprayer to prevent dropping or twisting. • Abrasion resistance = excellent appearance to uphold corporate image: The Avient material resists scratching and scraping that commonly occur when sprayers are dragged along the ground or left out in all types of weather.

Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Laser Welding Additives for Medical Devices Laser welding has become a technology of choice to join plastic parts of complex medical devices. Also known as transmission welding, laser welding is the process of using focused laser radiation to bond two plastic parts, one that is transparent to the laser energy and one that absorbs the energy. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a widely used plastic, particularly in the food and beverage industry, because of its recyclability, lightweight properties, and durability. Each stage can result in material loss and degradation, impacting the overall yield. These additives should not negatively impact the recyclability of PET and should help maintain the integrity of the recycled material.

This is achieved by molding a soft skin of thermoplastic elastomer over a hard engineering plastic. The TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability. The bond strength between the TPE and the engineering plastic was measured by performing a “90o Peel Test”.
