TPEs and specialty engineered polymers for auto-injector pens: offer excellent chemical and impact resistance, good self-lubrication functions, durability to extend product life and meet biocompatibility and food-contact safety regulations.

As a global specialized medical grade materials provider, Avient can offer a full range of support from the development to the production of healthcare applications that can help our customers positively impact a patient’s health and well-being.” Colorant Chromatics™ Transcend™ Premier Healthcare Colorants are bright, high-temperature solutions offered in pre-colored formulations or color concentrates in vivid, opaque, and transparent colors. They are fully bio-compatible per ISO 10993 standards to provide ultra-high-heat resistance and performance without compromising safety.  

THE SOLUTION In the development of the Caplex PRO-002, Humotech sought a material solution that would provide high torque, flexibility, and durability for key components of the foot. THE IMPACT The high energy storage characteristics of Gordon Composites thermoset springs provide Humotech’s prosthetic foot a natural flex, responding similarly to human calf muscles with the roll and rebound required for the patient to achieve a natural gait.

The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs. THE IMPACT Avient’s expertise in materials for medical device applications helped this customer make a smooth transition to the GLS TPV.

ECCOH™ Low Smoke & Fume Non-Halogen Formulation 5981 UV and chemically resistant thermoplastic for Teck 90 cable outer jackets ECCOH 5981 UV thermoplastic is a cost-effective material for jacketing, combining high environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR), UV performance, good shear strength, and flame-retardant properties for low-voltage, armored cables. With these high-performing mechanical properties, and the ability to customize for specific application requirements, the ECCOH 5981 formulation provides an LSFOH material that is especially suitable in cables used in confined spaces, such as mines, industrial plants, and transit systems. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Smoke mitigation • Flame resistance • Passes -40° cold impact testing • Crush resistance • UV resistance • Suitable for CSA Teck 90 specification • Excellent tensile strength (2,910 psi) • Natural grades for easy colorability MARKETS & APPLICATIONS This LSFOH thermoplastic meets critical requirements for low-voltage, armored cable jackets.
