How can you make the most of color, from design through processing? Sync design with manufacturability: Learn about how Avient Design can help simplify your new product development process

Like conventional TPEs, the production scrap of plant-based reSound materials can be reused during the manufacturing process. Technical information, design guides, processing information and more.

This can help simplify the overall decision-making process for brand owners and technical colorists and help shorten the time-to-launch of new product ranges. These new reSound materials utilize global formulation expertise, green manufacturing processes, and sourcing & logistics competence to lower net CO2 emissions while delivering comparable performance to traditional TPEs.

Developed to meet the growing luxury packaging industry needs for a cost-effective alternative to metal, the portfolio expansion includes 15 grades suitable for electroplating and physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes. When designing with metals like aluminum, zinc, iron, steel, and other alloys, designers face various processing challenges and design constraints.

These new materials are formulated to improve design, performance and processing capabilities versus traditional silicone, thermoplastic urethane (TPU), or thermoplastic vulcanizates.   These materials also expand design possibilities while streamlining the manufacturing process for lower production cost.

Certain PFAS are often used in a range of personal protection products, including in their manufacturing processes or surface treatments. Thanks to its unique manufacturing process and performance properties, the Dyneema® brand signifies that its fiber, UD material, and film are made without intentionally added PFAS.

Polymer Distribution: Leveraging a comprehensive portfolio of polymers, colorants, and additives, our knowledgeable professionals help streamline product design, material selection, manufacturing processes, and supply chain efforts through local support and global availability Vibration Damping Technologies: Versaflex™ VDT thermoplastic elastomers reduce appliance vibration and ‘walking’ when used in anti-vibration feet for top load washing machines, and can be overmolded to help eliminate secondary processes and reduce cycle time

Trained local ‘refractionists’ assist in the process. Our group of experienced industrial designers and project engineers combine design, polymer science and manufacturing expertise to streamline customers’ product development process and sharpen their competitive edge.

PolyOne’s exhibit features a thermoplastic composite “exploration station” where attendees can interact and see the unique performance characteristics and processing versatility of CFRTP composites. Caption: PolyOne invites product designers and engineers to collaborate on material development, product design, processing, and testing in their thermoplastic composite innovation cell in Englewood, CO.

With our complete range of wire and cable solutions for applications in telecommunications, electronics, and transportation, Avient can help consistently meet product specification challenges and add value through ease of processing, product performance, and cost-saving,” said Say-Eng Lee, vice president and general manager, Color & Additives Asia at Avient.   These engineered fibers are designed to provide water-blocking capability in dry design fiber optic cable applications, developed for optimal grip and insulation performance in cable jacketing and armor, and processed to help extend the life span for oil and gas pipe and industrial belts.
