The manufacturer was struggling to find a replacement material with excellent chemical resistance and a high flame retardant rating. THE SOLUTION The manufacturer approached Avient with its challenge. From there, the Avient team identified material options that offered high flame retardancy and finally, requirements for processing flexibility and colorability were applied.

Avient does currently purchase and use a small amount of fluoropolymers and PFAS- containing additives as raw materials which represent less than 3% of our global product portfolio. This methodology is available for Avient’s product portfolio and receives third party certification from TÜV Rheinland annually. The next phases of this program are to automate the PCF calculation process, creating a digital tool for our teams, and to expand our capability to calculate LCA inventory data.

The portfolio includes non-hazardous endothermic substances that require minimum cooling of the plastic parts after manufacturing. Packaging The Hydrocerol CFAs portfolio includes grades specially developed for extruded packaging films and sheets where thermoforming characteristics of the finished article are critical.

Avient’s team recommended the use of overmolding (two-shot injection molding) to integrate the boot with the saw housing, and trialed several products before customizing a grade from its portfolio. Avient gathered detailed data from this customer’s production facility in Mexico and helped them calculate and compare the costs of the two solutions. The TPE grade surpassed the performance of the previous material and allowed the manufacturer to introduce a more efficient production process.

Ensure mixing area is clean and free from ink. Store Epic inks separately from other ink chemistries. Ensure machine and pallets are free of ink and lint.

Additionally, the grades are formaldehyde-free, addressing VOC concerns in manufacturing versus POM. Available in natural and black grades, LubriOne PKE grades can be colored at the press.
