Hear from Meenali Parsekar, product manager for wire and cable materials at Avient to learn more about the manufacturing considerations for photovoltaic cable However, what needs to be considered when manufacturing photovoltaic cable?   Processing efficiency: In a competitive market, manufacturers want to maximize output, so choosing a material that processes well at good line speed is also essential.

Avient’s Mevopur™ portfolio and risk mitigation concept can help healthcare manufacturers on the journey to increased security of supply for plastics used in their products. Mevopur colorants and functional additives are manufactured in four sites located in Europe, North America, and Asia. The raw materials are pre-tested to the relevant chapters of ISO 10991, USP 661, USP Class VI, EP 3.1 and to the ICH Q3D guidelines to help manufacturers increase the certainty of regulatory compliance for their devices and packaging.

The first priority for manufacturers of healthcare products is to ensure they are safe for users. Choosing different materials can help reduce the carbon footprint of manufactured products. Some polymer grades on the plastic market are already manufactured using renewable sources such as corn, sugar cane, and vegetable oil.

QSR manufactures custom synthetic rubber components utilizing state-of-the-art automated liquid silicone molding as well as traditional transfer and compression molding processes. With manufacturing facilities in North America and China, QSR and Qure Medical supply solutions to some of the biggest brands and manufacturers in the medical, automotive and wider silicone and rubber industry.

They offer high design flexibility, multi-function integration, size miniaturization and weight reduction to meet demanding manufacturing requirements without compromising production efficiency and cost. These 3D/LDS Edgetek formulations also can assist advanced electronic component manufacturers to miniaturize mechanical and electrical systems for smaller end products, even in high heat manufacturing process, such as SMT.

Colorant Chromatics™ Evoluscend™ is a non-PFAS* high-temperature polymer mold release additive developed to boost production efficiency and product quality for manufacturers.   Importantly, this solution is manufactured without intentionally added fluoropolymers, fluoroelastomers, or any other pre- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), supporting customer's sustainability goals and regulatory compliance by offering an alternative to intentionally added PFAS materials. manufactured without intentionally added PFAS and without PTFE

– February 6, 2018 – At Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West this week, PolyOne is highlighting its extensive portfolio of polymers and colorants for the healthcare industry while also featuring the experts who stand behind the technology. Expert team that collaborates with medical device OEMs and contract manufacturers to provide an unparalleled combination of material and application knowledge, advanced technical resources, and logistics expertise to optimize medical component performance and mitigate risk. GLS™ Versaflex™ HC Thermoplastic Elastomers: Offers manufacturers design freedom, a simplified injection molding process, and streamlined production

Using the new bio-based Mevopur polymer solutions instead of conventional materials,” says Volker Dickfeld, senior marketing manager, healthcare global, “can help manufacturers of pharmaceutical packaging, medical devices and related products reduce their carbon footprint. And, because they are produced under Mevopur protocols, these polymer solutions also can help the manufacturers reduce their risk of regulatory non-compliance.” Manufactured using non-fossil feedstocks, the new Mevopur concentrates include polymers with bio-based content between 70 and 100%, as calculated to ASTM D6866 standard.
