Glass-filled PA6 & PA66 test bars dissolved within one day, while the glass-filled PK samples remained stable after 20 days.
If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear.

• Elimination of lead = increased safety and compliance: Replacing brass with Gravi-Tech high-density formulations eliminates health and safety concerns about lead. • Use of existing tooling = lower capital costs: API was able to use the same mold originally designed for nylon to run the Gravi-Tech materials, saving the substantial costs of retooling.

To provide a secure grip for safety and usability, the company planned to overmold a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) onto the handle and other selected areas of the sprayer.
These savings help the company to achieve high margins on its top-of-the-line sprayers. • High-end product line = competitive advantage: With Avient’s OnFlex-S TPE, developers successfully designed and produced a new, high-end product line that compares favorably with all-plastic sprayers in terms of appearance, performance and durability. • Gripping feel = safety and usability for customers: Hand grips created from overmolded OnFlex-S TPE provide excellent anti-slip performance even when wet.
