Avient will also showcase the following functional additives, colorants, TPEs, and support services to help address the needs and trends of an evolving healthcare landscape: Versaflex™ HC BT218 TPEs for Biopharmaceutical tubing provide weldability, kink resistance, and tensile strength performance. Versaflex™ HC 2110-57B TPEs comply with ISO 10993-4, ISO 10993-5, and USP Class VI and are suitable for Ethylene Oxide (EtO) sterilization without residue or allergens.

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. reSound™ Ultra-Low Carbon Footprint TPEs: These TPE formulations offer an industry-first cradle-to-gate negative, neutral, or near-zero product carbon footprint (PCF) while delivering comparable performance to traditional TPEs.

Eco-conscious TPEs Reduce emissions with reSound™ Ultra-Low Carbon Footprint TPEs

Brand owners who collaborate with PolyOne are taking advantage of Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified Formulations, metallic-effect GLS™ thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), and InVisiOSM Color and Design Services. Similarly, metallic-effect GLS TPEs are utilized in cosmetics closures and applicators via an overmolding process, which eliminates the time and cost associated with secondary operations and assembly.
