A leading supplier of advanced automotive technologies approached Avient to create a new olefinic material for an HVAC damper. In addition to the lighter weight requirement, the material needed to resist warpage after molding, a common issue for thin walled plastic parts. In addition, the new material provides anti-static properties and low VOC levels, which helps the system adhere to regulations such as the Vehicle Interior Air Quality (VIAQ) standard.

Styrenic block copolymer (SBC) elastomers are some of the most versatile and easily processed materials in the plastics industry. This bulletin focuses on the raw material cost, specifically how specific gravity plays a role in product economics.  The hardness of a material is often one of the first criteria considered when choosing a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
