OnFlex™ Thermoplastic Elastomers Solutions for Automotive Applications To keep up with industry demands, regulatory challenges and end-user preferences, it’s imperative to consider the influence of material specifications at the beginning of the product development cycle. Known for offering tight seals and reducing vibration and noise, certain thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), like OnFlex™ grades, may be better suited for your particular application than the historically incumbent materials, like general purpose TPEs, thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV), and thermoplastic polyolefins (TPO).

There’s a way to achieve both form and function by adding a soft-touch, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) grip. SOFT-TOUCH GRIPS FOR A COMPETITIVE EDGE Infuse quality, comfort & high-end aesthetics into your designs with GLSTM Thermoplastic Elastomers by Avient.

Homepage // News Center // New Artisan™ ABS Thermoplastic Solution from Avient Features Metallic Effect for Electronics Brands By using Artisan pre-colored ABS thermoplastics, molders are able to produce parts with a brilliant, high-gloss metallic effect without any secondary processing. Compared with a traditional painting process, injection-molded Artisan materials have lower energy requirements and reduced VOC emissions, making these thermoplastics a more sustainable solution.

Thermoset vs Thermoplastic (What’s the difference?) Common examples are polypropylene (PP), nylon (PA), polyketone (PK), and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). Amorphous vs Semi-Crystalline Thermoplastics An amorphous thermoplastic material has no specific molecular structure while a semi-crystalline polymer has some order.
