Low coefficient of thermal expansion

When using lifter bar ejection systems, differential thermal expansion of the mold may cause the lifter to jam.

This reflects the rapid pace at which we have strengthened our financial performance, and underscores the confidence we have in our ability to continue to achieve accelerated earnings expansion into 2015 and beyond.”

Avient announces expansion to Cesa™ functional additives and NEUSoft™ TPU portfolios and will highlight its innovative material solutions for healthcare at MD&M West 2025

In response to the tests, Avient leveraged its expansive portfolio of specialty additives to tailor the TPE for enhanced UV resistance and to inhibit mold growth—leading to an end product that would perform better for longer.

Through increased collaboration with customers, we'll capture both near-term growth prospects as well as benefit from the expansion of 5G networks. 

This includes lower-carbon alternatives to thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) without sacrificing performance, portfolio expansions including bio-renewable feedstock and post-industrial or post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, and new materials and services focused on meeting specific customer needs while helping to advance a circular economy.

This includes an expansion of the MagnaColours® ITO range of dyes from Avient Specialty Inks.
