Advanced polymer technologies are shaping the materials landscape, from CPAP tubing, cuffs, and housings to inhalers and nasal cannulas. Customized Versaflex™ TPE formulation to balance mar resistance, flow, and laser marking whiteness and clarity Medical Device Housing

The supplier molds two housing components using a 20 percent talc-filled polypropylene — one for the HVAC parts and one for the blower motor — then assembles all of the components to produce a single module. Time savings of five to six seconds per cycle for molded housings

Today’s growth in multi-family housing, non-residential buildings, and supporting infrastructure offers tremendous opportunities for your products. Consider replacing metal heat sinks and housings with our specialty polymer solutions to reduce weight, increase design options, manage heat, and boost your manufacturing efficiency.

Disinfectant Resistance for Medical Device Housings - Case Study Manufacturer boosts disinfectant resistance for medical device housings using Trilliant HC High Performance Formulations

Airtight housings are molded from Maxxam™ FR non-halogenated flame retardant polymers and overmolded with OnFlex™ non-halogenated, flame-retardant thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs). In addition to its non-halogen formulation, the regulatory-compliant Maxxam solution has a lower density than traditional materials, which reduces material consumption and housing weight for greater production efficiency.

In-House Prototyping Support We have press sizes ranging from 50 to 550 ton and are proud of our agility for in-house formulation modification, should it be needed.  

Compression Controller Housing Grip Versollan™ TPEs  were able to provide good adhesion to PCTG and a comfortable, ergonomic grip for a compression controller housing grip

Airtight housings are designed with PolyOne’s Maxxam™ FR and OnFlex™ non-halogenated, flame-retardant solutions. In addition to its non-halogen formulation, the regulatory-compliant Maxxam solution has a lower density than traditional materials, which reduces material consumption and housing weight for greater production efficiency.

They completed the metal-to-plastics transition in less than four months – bringing production in-house while using the same tooling. Today, Mars Otomotiv benefits from the simplified logistics of molding polymer heat sinks in-house – including reduced order lead time, improved on-time order completion and more free-working capital. 

In addition to booster pump control heads, the technology can be extended to pump housings, diffusers, impellers, water softeners, valves, actuators, flow meters, flanges, seal plates, motor mounting plates, motor lock rings, and union connectors. Geon Fiberloc™ glass-reinforced vinyl composite houses the electronic “smart” system for the Franklin Electric Inline 400 booster pump control head.
