This enables us to evaluate how different materials perform and to establish best practice processing parameters. Material Data Sets • A number of material characterization data sets are available in .udb, moldex 3D, xChange data cards, and SIPOE format Mold Filling Simulation (see examples below) • Serves to validate part design (e.g., gate location, fill/pack/warp/cool) & material solution • Evaluates component design viability with preferred Avient material solution • Fiber analysis determines fiber orientation and length • Predicts part quality and manufacturability (shrink, warp, weld line location) FILLING PART QUALITYFIBER ORIENTATION Finite Element Analysis (FEA) • Virtually simulates how an application will perform in real-world conditions with a high level of precision • Able to represent a variety of problems, test methods, models and outputs to evaluate the design, process and material combination for validation or optimization • Dynamic - Acceleration - Impact - Break/no break - Transmitted force - Energy absorption • Thermal Mechanical - Temperature Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) - Heat path - Dominant heat transfer - Temperature mapping - Coupling with mechanical simulations FEA Simulation Capabilities • Static - Displacement/rotations - Stress and strains - Contact pressure - Reaction forces/moments - Factors of safety • Vibration - Eigen frequencies - Harmonic response ○ Harmonic displacement, acceleration and stress Software Used • Autodesk Moldflow • Digimat • Simulia/Abaqus • MSC Cradle • CAD/CAE - MSC Apex - SolidWorks Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) Support By leveraging mold filling simulation, multiphysics simulation, and the understanding of the link between design, process and material, we can help inform your decision-making process for product development.

We're very excited to share some of the many examples of how our global associates are helping customers overcome their challenges and achieve their sustainability goals," Mr. Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance.

Innovation is the lifeblood of a specialty company, and our ongoing growth of composites and sustainable solutions are examples of how we're positioning Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance.

Since TPEs are slightly compressible in the molten state, larger runner volumes can cause hot tip gates to drool after the mold is opened. To prevent drool, the runner system should be minimized and the melt decompressed before the mold opens.
