The Avient team worked with the manufacturer to meet specific property needs and developed a customized solution that added soft-touch, ergonomic, and friction-free features.

Processors are looking to replace current process additives containing PFAS with non-PFAS fluorine-free solutions that exhibit performance characteristics similar to traditional fluoropolymer- based solutions.

By using mold filling simulation and Digimat to evaluate several options, we can account for manufacturing variation when performing long fibre structural analysis. In addition to providing a robust way to account for differing gate locations from the manufacturing process, Hexagon’s Digimat multiscale modelling approach provides significant improvements in the accuracy of the stiffness and failure.
