THE CHALLENGE Schneider-Electric NB (Strömfors), a Nordic-based producer of electrical parts recently switched to a non-halogenated gasket (seal) material from Avient in boxes and enclosures for household electrical installations. THE SOLUTION The Schneider-Electric NB (Strömfors) design staff turned to Avient for help in selecting the right material. Next, the materials team formulated a grade that would offer enough heat resistance to be overmolded onto polypropylene, the underlying rigid material.
