Wearable devices such as smartwatches and rings are revolutionizing how patients and healthcare professionals track and access medical data.

The increased demand for data capacity and low latency, plus the growing volume of connected devices requires more base stations and higher frequencies.  

Compare long glass fiber thermoplastics strength, toughness, impact data and more.

Sensing data acquired by radars, LiDAR and cameras are combined with GPS, V2X and 5G to create very detailed real-time maps so that cars can perform micro path planning, select lanes and avoid obstacles.

This technology works well in aerospace applications, including optical fiber or data transmission cables.

A saturated blue, glowing red and transparent chartreuse are suggestive of high-speed data streams, while foggy grey adds a note of stealth. 

Compliant to the NEK 606 specification, they can be used for OFC, power and data cables in shipbuilding, and offshore applications.

Additionally, ECCOH™ low smoke and fume non-halogen materials are well suited for fiber optics and communication cables; and Fiber-Line™ Swellcoat™ water blocking yarns enable cable designers to reduce cable footprint with higher fiber count cables for increased data transmission capabilities.

Graphene is a flat, single layer of carbon atoms in sheet form that is significantly stronger than steel.3 It has a high surface area-to-volume ratio, high tensile strength (how much it can stretch before it breaks), and high electron mobility (the speed at which its electrons move when voltage is applied).4 Graphene is not a new material, but it recently became commercially available and is now being used as a polymer additive. Boyson, et al., “Graphene: Sheets of Carbon-based Nanoparticles,” http://www.dummies.com/education/science/nanotechnology/graphene-sheets-of-carbon-based-nanoparticles/ 5E. Compounds at the high end of the resistivity scale shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI).1 Faster data transmission and broader electromagnetic frequencies are driving the need for better EMI/RFI protection for electronic devices.2

We also navigate the complex regulatory landscape, helping you meet the latest safety and compliance standards.  Avient's TPEs and engineered materials for auto-injector pens offer excellent chemical and impact resistance, good self-lubrication functions, durability to extend product life, and compliance with biocompatibility and food-contact safety regulations.
