Our GLS™ overmold TPEs have excellent adhesion to a wide variety of substrates, from polyolefins, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, to engineering resins, such as PC, ABS, acetal and nylon.
As new TPE technologies emerge to adhere to engineering plastics like nylon and PC/ABS, PP-based color concentrates may not be the best choice for optimized adhesion characteristics.

Yes, achieving this target will support Avient's achievement of Abs 3.
Though this goal is most closely related to our products, this goal necessitates that any waste produced via the manufacturing process also be recycle, and so is indirectly tied to our Abs 3 waste goal.
