THE SOLUTION With its global footprint, Avient was able to work with DENSO both in initial trials in Japan as well as locally at a manufacturing facility in Europe. The technical services team at Avient worked closely with the European material engineering team at DENSO under the lead of Mr. Avient engineered a new customized formulation for the part, which provided both the processability required for extremely short cycle injection-compression molding, as well as including an additive to stabilize the material when in contact with copper.

The kick-off event featured Jamie Beggs, Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, sharing her inspiring story as a working parent, as well as her perspective on the integration of work and family. Joining RAISE gave me the opportunity to network with other working parents and feel like I am truly not alone in this challenging journey of parenthood.” Share knowledge & experiences to learn from each other, connect caregivers and working parents at Avient to facilitate relationship-building

They only have to work once. But they have to work right. With our wide range of material solutions, we will work with you to find the right balance between functionality and design. 

High-quality conductive pipette tips must meet a number of demanding performance criteria, including: • Accurate measurement of minute quantities of liquid • Hydrophobic properties to minimize fluid retention • Concentric dimensions and warp resistance • Excellent chemical resistance The manufacturer asked Avient for a specialized solution to meet these exacting needs in a timely and efficient manner so they could capitalize on its market opportunity THE SOLUTION Avient’s sales and technical professionals worked closely with the manufacturer to understand the demanding requirements of the end-use application, manufacturing considerations and cost. THE IMPACT For the manufacturer, Trilliant™ HC specialty engineered materials provided a number of advantages that contributed to the success of the new product line: • Reduced Cycle Time: The high flow properties of the Trilliant HC formulation allowed the manufacturer to produce warp-free parts that require less packing and cooling time, resulting in a 40% cycle time reduction Total Manufacturing Cost Savings: Despite an increase I price per pound over the competition, the manufacturer’s total cash costs were reduced by over $45,000 on an annualized basis as a result of the proven, quantified savings in cycle time, productivity and scrap.

As a result, this offers sophisticated options for demanding and reusable applications subject to multiple sterilization cycles and heavy cleaning. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Mevopur™ Chemical Foaming Agents can help manufacturers of medical achieve their sustainability goals through lightweighting, reducing plastic use (and therefore reducing the consumption of non-renewable resources), enabling faster cycling times, and saving energy during processing.   Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

According to third-party life cycle analysis (LCA), there is a 61% reduction in CO₂ compared to PA66. How well does this material work with adhesives for bonding?
