Because it exhibits a higher flow rate than other SBC-based TPEs, OnFlex-S TPE reduces cycle times during injection molding, a feature that satisfies productivity objectives set by Jäger.
The higher performance improves perceived quality among consumers and reduces replacement costs.
Improved flow = lower unit costs: High flow characteristics of the Avient solution in combination with a TandemMold result in doubled production volume for a 50% reduction in machine-related costs per part.
