The glass fiber orientation provided lightweight strength in all directions while meeting the specific thickness required for the tube structure. When deployed, the composite material quickly unrolls to form rigid tubes that are strong, stable, rugged, and weatherproof—providing the ultimate user experience even in extreme conditions.

Homepage // News Center // HAI Prevention Has an Ally: New PolyOne TPEs Feature Enhanced Resistance to Antiseptics After repeated exposure to antiseptics, the new TPE grades resist overmolding delamination, cracking and loss of resilience. Customers have reported that devices made with Versaflex HC TPEs successfully withstood 10,000 antiseptic wipes.

Homepage // News Center // Avient’s New Recycled TPE Grades Support Greater Use of Recycled Materials in Automotive Vehicles Overall, the new reSound REC AF 7210 TPE grades from Avient contain 51-59% recycled content, with a minimum of 37% from PCR sources, including closed-loop feedstock. They offer an 8-18% reduction in product carbon footprint1 (PCF) compared to virgin TPE grades.  

For example, overmolding a TPE grip onto a hand mixer can improve comfort. A few of the options you can add with GLS TPEs: 1. TPEs can provide unusual texturing, such as a bubble or ridged surface or even a leather look. 3.

Homepage // News Center // Avient Launches Automotive-Specific Grades within its reSound™ REC Recycled Content TPEs Portfolio New reSound™ REC TPEs from Avient offer sustainable alternatives to traditional materials for automotive interior applications. The new grades for automotive interior applications are formulated with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, offering a more sustainable TPE option with comparable performance to traditional TPEs.

Homepage // News Center // PolyOne OnFlex™ LO TPEs Awarded for Low VOC Technology that Improves the Automotive Interior Experience OnFlex LO, PolyOne’s newest ground-breaking TPE technology, reduces volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by up to 50 percent versus existing TPEs, and minimizes fogging and odor in interior automotive components. While our existing TPEs lead the industry in low emissions performance, we continue to innovate and anticipate future demands and stricter requirements.

Homepage // News Center // Avient Extends Recycled TPE Portfolio with Grades Containing up to 60% Recycled Content, Supporting Global Customers Avient’s new reSound™ REC GP 7820 TPE grades highlighted at Fakuma 2024 can be used for overmolded components in consumer electronics, grips for razors and personal care products, and handles for bicycles and power tools The new reSound REC GP 7820 TPE grades are available in hardnesses ranging from 40 – 80 Shore A.

PROFILE OUTER DIAMETERIN (MM) INNER DIAMETER IN (MM) WALL THICKNESS IN (MM) Continuous Filament Wound 0.298–1.170 (7.57–29.72) 0.250–1.070 (6.35–27.18) 0.024–0.097 (0.61–2.46) The Glasforms™ continuous filament winding process combines the principles of filament winding with pultrusion to create lightweight, stiff tubes and poles with a constant cross-section and maximum durability. Unlike conventional filament wound or pultruded tubing, reinforcements are precisely oriented to optimize the stiffness-to-weight ratio. Benefits include: • Alternating longitudinal (axial) fibers for flexural & tensile strength and circumferential (biaxial) fibers for crush & burst resistance • Manufactured continuously, at a much higher rate than standard filament winding • Resin matrix and fiber loading formulated to meet your property requirements • Tubing in standard or customized diameters and lengths STANDARD SIZES http://www.polyone.com/content/product-selection-help-form To learn more about Avient advanced composite solutions, call +1.844.4AVIENT or visit www.avient.com/composites Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.
