Avient helped one customer improve their protective masks to better satisfy global demands. With proper ingredient selection and processing, MagIQ Non-Woven Electret Additives helped the middle layer of these protective masks effectively trap particles as small as 0.3 microns.

The molder asked Avient to help analyze the situation. The team’s first move - optimizing the molding machine parameters to boost productivity – helped, but it was not enough.

Discover how thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) that withstand oils, solvents, and more are helping brand owners and converters create cosmetic packaging that lasts. Chemically compatible TPEs can help brand owners and converters satisfy functional needs and enhance cosmetic packaging applications in three primary ways: 

The design team reached out to long-term supplier Avient GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers to help develop a customized solution. The lighter weight and stiffer walls of the redesigned tote helped the manufacturer to differentiate its product and gain market share.

With non-hazardous Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents (CFA) Avient helped the customer achieve their sustainability targets through significant energy savings in production and finished part weight reduction. Using Hydrocerol with core-back molding technology, a process in which the mold is opened slightly to further reduce pressure and allow the foam core to expand, Avient helped the customer leverage density reduction to lower finished part weight.

Over the years, as GLS™ has worked with customers to perfect their thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) applications, we've developed a range of concepts and procedures that can help improve and optimize designs. This TPE Tip can help you achieve: •    Conventional, opaque colors •    High visibility, fluorescent, bright colors •    Transparent, translucent, or pearlescent colors •    Thermochromic colors for color change based on temperature
