When a product is classified as an "FDA grade" material, it designates that only 21 CFR, parts 170-199 approved materials are used in its formulation.
When subsequently heated, the chains slip again.

PHTHALATES FACTS PHTHALATES ARE KNOWN TO BREAK DOWN IN THE HUMAN BODY Research has shown that after entering the body, phthalate are broken down into metabolites within minutes and pass out quickly in urine.2 PHTHALATE EXPOSURE IS CONSIDERED LOW Despite the fact that phthalates are used in a wide range of products, human exposure from all sources is considered to be extremely low.2 PHTHALATES ARE A USEFUL CHOICE FOR HEALTHCARE Flexible vinyl tubing does not react with most medications, allowing for reliable administration of drugs, while flexible vinyl bags prevent blood contamination and extend shelf life of the blood.3 PHTHALATES ARE REGULATED Based on earlier studies, a few specific phthalates have been banned for use in toys or other items for sale to children under twelve to reduce risk of overexposure through hand-to- mouth behaviors. 1 Source: chemicalsafetyfacts.org 2 Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 3 Source: thisisplastics.com www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.

This implies efficient heat transfer between the molten TPE to the rigid substrate.
As an example, most TPEs do not bond effectively to heat stabilized grade polyamide 6 (HS).

Often running continuously, they build up heat and can wear away over time, requiring regular maintenance and external lubrication to keep machinery running smoothly.
With a low co-efficient of friction they reduce heat build-up, noise and vibrations, and are corrosion resistant, extending part life.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Excellent wear resistance • Reduced friction, heat build-up, noise and vibration • Improved processability and surface finish on parts • Lower power requirements and low maintenance • Design flexibility • Reduced weight APPLICATION BULLETIN SOLUTIONS AVAILABLE LubriOne™ Portfolio PA66, PA6 and Polyketone formulations with 10%–30% glass fiber reinforcement available Lubricants & Performance Lubricant Color Performance LubriOne NN PTFE Natural Shears and creates a PTFE film transferred to the matting surface.
