As global demand for internet connectivity and data transmission capacity continues to rise, fiber optic cable is replacing traditional copper communication cables at a fast pace. New ECCOH™ LSFOH 6153 UV and 6154 UV extend PolyOne’s low smoke, fume, zero halogen portfolio, which is focused on applications where smoke mitigation is of particular concern, including communication and data cables.

To support the customer’s desire to create an improved medical instrument that is bio-compatible without compromising safety, chemical resistance, or color, Avient provided pre-colored solutions using the newly launched Colorant Chromatics™ Transcend™ Premier Healthcare Colorants.   However, medical devices and instruments are frequently exposed to harsh temperatures and chemicals for cleaning and disinfecting, which can diminish safety and color.   We’re excited to continue to help meet the demand for others looking for solutions that provide a wide range of colors while maintaining product performance and high safety standards,” said Hippert.  

PolyOne’s ECCOH™ low-smoke and fume, non-halogen flame-retardant material for wire and cable enabled Keystone to quickly manufacture and deliver medium- and low-voltage power cables that complied with safety, performance, reliability and environmental requirements. PolyOne‘s ECCOH material met Keystone’s requirements for excellent electrical and mechanical properties, long-term aging reliability, flame retardance to improve safety in the event of fire (IEC-60332-24), and a non-halogen formulation to meet environmental standards (IEC-60574). Woon-Keat Moh, general manager, Specialty Engineered Materials Asia for PolyOne, said, “Our advanced thermoplastic formulations help wire and cable manufacturers meet demands for better performance and safety, while also meeting necessary environmental requirements.
